    Question about Lyman case trimmer

    So I've got a nice Lyman case trimmer and I've even got the carbide cutter and power adapter, however I'm wondering if anyone know if there is any kind of upgrade that resembles the trimmers available from Little Crow Gunworks?

    The kind I'm talking about register on the sized case shoulder and if I remember rightly they have a cutter that has an inside and outside chamber that leaves everything in a ready to go condition.

    I'm considering the Little Crow trimmer for 223/5.56 cases. I'm feeding a hungry Dillon RL550C.... that should explain my need for expedience
    If your mind goes blank don't forget to turn off the sound!

    you cant go wrong with the LC pricey but you get what you pay for not sure the shaft will fit a lyman

    I don't think there are any upgrades like that for the Lyman. I had their Universal with carbide cutter and drill attachment. I got a WFT for my birthday and won't go back to the Lyman.

    If you want to trim and chamfer at the same time, I would think you would need a different cutter for each caliber.

    The WFT and WFT2 also only trim. They do not chamfer or deburr.
