I have seen this on other gun forums and I thought I would start a thread about things that make my reloading easier.

For rifle reloading I like to use the Lee trimmer kits for trimming brass.

You have to buy a basic kit like this:Midway link (http://www.midwayusa.com/eproductpage.exe/showproduct?saleitemid=476992&t=11082005)

Then purchase the length gauge and shellholder for the caliber you are reloading: Midway Link (http://www.midwayusa.com/eproductpage.exe/showproduct?saleitemid=107333&t=11082005)

The case gauge screws into the cutter and trims the case to length by going through the primer hole and bottoming out on the shellholder. You can chuck the shellholder in the drill and it makes the process go very quick. After trimming I use Lee's deburring tool to clean up the case mouth.

Yup, I run one of those,...

chuck it up in my cordless drill. and trimmer with the wooden handle is mcuh more comfortable.
