Case trimmer. What's a good bang for the buck?

[Fishslayer]

Looking to buy a case trimmer for <$100. Not for huge quantities. Easy to use would be good. Power nice but not mandatory. Repeatability is most important.

Suggestions?

Forster Original Case Trimmer Kit - MidwayUSA

I love mine. You can also get an adaptor to allow you to use an electric drill.

They also make hollow pointing attachments for it that do a real nice job.

+1 I have been using one for 40+ years and it works great. In addition they offer a large assortment of accessories that will do just about anything you can think of to a case.

Although I have and currently use a Foster that is set up in a micro variable speed drill press I would suggest a Wilson from L.E. Wilson, Inc. in Cashmere, WA.

Unless you are going to do huge quantities, I prefer the lee handheld trimmer - see
Lee Precision, Inc. Reloading Tools and Equipment: Case Condidtioning Tools

While it *appears* that this would be slow, since it is non-adjustable and pretty much fumble-proof, the reality is that you can trim cases while watching TV, etc.

+1!
I have mine for over 37 years! You can get a power attachment as noted earlier.

I use an RCBS pro case trimming tool. I think I paid $60 for it and it does what it's intended to. They also have an attachment for neck turning. It's a manual turner but since you normally only have to cut a neck one time I don't get too carried away with them. My target rifle brass is all cut, trimmed, weighed, primer pocket reamed, inside and outside of the neck bevelled. In other words, I get somewhat anal when it comes to target shooting.

Just listing a different case cutter...

Name and any pics of that micro drill press? It sure sounds interesting.

Thanks

Last I heard Electro Mechano was still in business in Milwaukee.
