STAINLESS STEEL CASE TRIMMER KIT

STAINLESS STEEL CASE TRIMMER KIT Reviews & Ratings

L.E. Wilson Case Trimmer and Sinclair Mounting Stand with “SharkFin” Case Holder Clamp (order case holders separately.) This mounting stand and clamping attachment make case trimming much quicker and comfortable. The mounting stand can be C-clamped or permanently mounted to a bench top. The “SharkFin” Case Holder Clamp swings quickly into place and provides downward pressure on the case holder while trimming.

Difficult to adjust
When I got it, I was impressed with it, the construction quality is good and it looks nice. I read the instructions well and it seems straightforward in the instructions. It does cut the case mouths nice and square, I will give it that. Very very square. However, I have found it a poor case trimmer, because it is extremely difficult to set a repeatable case trim length. I will set it up for .223 Remington, for example at trim length of 1.750. Afterwards, case lengths will be all over the place. Its super sensitive to set up for case length and very sensitive to both how tight the set screw is as well as hand pressure on the handle while cranking it. I dont use it.
