I use the Lee case trimmer set. You buy a cutter/holder and the appropriate length rod that can be used as a case length guide and keep the cutter at the precise length from the head. Buy whatever cal's you need....you only need ONE cutter assembly.

I think I paid ~$8 for the cutter holder and ~$5 for each cal rod and shell holder.

The shell case holder fits in a drill or press. Has a hex shaft! I use my variable speed Bosch 18v with great success. Or you can just twiddle it by hand.

I have a lathe-style trimmer and the Lee is set it much better, faster, and cheaper!

Got mine at Sportsman's Whorehouse.
