Lyman case trim xpress?

[6.5grendel]

Does anyone have experience with the Lyman case trim xpress? How is the consistency on trim length and how good is it at cutting the necks perfectly sqaure? I'm thinking about getting this but want to make sure it has good consistency and cuts square. Appreciate any advice or input on it.

I did a search before I posted. Only one other thread came up about the case trim xpress. The rest of the results were for the case prep xpress. The case trim xpress has only been out for about a year and I posted asking about it then, but there wasn't anyone who had much experience with it yet. If you know of some other threads that discuss the consistency and accuracy of this trimmer, then please point me to them and I will delete this thread.

Mine has been pretty accurate. It takes a little getting used to but after you get the hang of it works just fine.

Exactly ^^^^^^

I have one, set it up for 6.5 CM, run the case through it, then chamfer and deburr.

I’ve got one and use it on several different cases. Works well. I do get tired fingers after awhile.

I have the Hornaday Duo tool to do with mine. They are not a Giraud but they do what they are intended to do for me.

Thanks everyone. I think I'm going to go ahead and try one. Hopefully a 6BR case will have enough case still sticking out to hold on to.

I just got one, been using a K-M power adapter and handle to hold the shell when inserting into the trimmer. Saves the old fingers and seems to give more consistent results.

I do the same as Slo-Pok and the case holder really helps keep my hands from hurting
