The RCBS 3 in one trimmer & what is the best angle of chamfer?

Please will someone tell me what the angle of chamfer is with the above-mentioned tool. It looks like it is 45 degrees.

I have been informed that 17 degrees is optimal.

Many thanks in advance.
 
17 degrees is optimal for a vld type chamfer tool. The normal 45 works with anything. If you gotta have a vld type i suggest the k&m. It has a stop for the case mouth because you can ruin brass in a hurry with the vld type. Half the neck will be tapered inside before you realize its cutting. I just use the old normal style. Works just fine.
