Case Turning

Case Trimming and Neck Turning

With firing and resizing, the case lengthens: trimming it to the correct length is necessary for safety and for a consistent crimp. In this collection you will find manual and bench case trimmers, spare pilots and cutters, Lee length gauges with shell holder, neck turning tools and case prep kits from Forster, Lyman, Lee Precision, RCBS and Hornady.

How to choose

• System: Lee trimmers use a dedicated gauge for each caliber; universal Lyman, Forster and RCBS trimmers require the correct pilot.
• Trim length: always refer to the maximum case length and trim length given in your reloading manual.
• Deburring: after trimming, deburr and chamfer the inside and outside of the case mouth.
