WTB: Dillon or Lyman 223 case trimmer

[Sleeping Dog]

I have a Dillon RT1100 press. I would like to trim the brass, but I don't have the Dillon trimmer (and it is out of stock).

I've heard that a Lyman 223 trimmer would work too.
Thanks

What kind of Lyman trimmer are you looking for?

It appears that this works with a Dillon case trimmer.

I'd hate to buy one and have it not fit, so if anyone knows if it works, that'd be great.

The Lyman is also 7/8-14, so it fits. Look into the Honey Badger trimmer setup. It is a brass gobbling beast, and the price is in line with commercial options.

Look into the "fast and friendly" honey badger router adaptorhttps://fastandfriendlybrass.com/shop/item.aspx/honey-badger-trimmer-adapter/34/ Basically you add a 3/8"-1/2" router motor to an adaptor that mounts to the dillon/lyman/C&H/Whidden or similar trim dies. You use an endmill which leaves a pretty clean cut, then if you run them through a wet tumbler with pins you're usually good to load. I have the adaptor and the 223 and 308 lyman dies linked above. Only other caliber I might add at some point is 30-06. The bosch 1617EVS 2.25hp soft start router is recommended. Shop around and you can sometimes get the router motor for under $100 if not they're available at the hardware store for $150-$170 plus the $85 (if you have a lathe easy enough to make) adaptor and you're at $250 VS $340 and have 2.25hp vs .25hp for the dillon.

Elmer beat me to it.
