I'm getting back into reloading and gathering equipment. I want to use the Lee hand press for the "dirty" operations (decapping, trimming, etc.) and do the rest with the RCBS RCS. The idea I have in my head is to mount it sideways on the bench to accomplish these things.
The other reason I have for asking is I'm torn between Accutrimmer, Lee Power Quick Trim, and Lyman ez trim. Here's how it's looking to me right now below.
Accutrimmer- <pros> comes with all the pilots
<cons> can't trim, chamfer, and deburr while using the spinning motion of the crank unless you buy a specialized tool for the cutter
Lee- <pros> can be mounted to press with drill where you can trim, chamfer, and deburr at the same time
<cons> although you can do all three operations at one time, if I decided to go with the drill, would I have to worry about concentricity issues? Also you have to go and buy separate trim dies for each caliber you want to trim
Lyman- <pros>can trim, chamfer, and deburr (as separate operations but all on the drill) two different packs (rifle and pistol) length gauges for trimming
<cons> again concentricity issues with the drill and inability to have a steady hand holding the gauge contributing to the above.
