Every thing I have is powered! Granted not great, but still better than manual. I've got an RCBS Trim Pro 2 hooked up to a drill, and that RCBS power mate or whatever with the five stations to debur and chamfer. Next time I'm rich, I'm probably going to look into some faster solutions. Heck, I haven't even started on .308 and .300 blk yet.

Look into wet tumbling your brass, no need to clean primer pockets...

But yes, fully processing rifle brass that has to be trimmed as well sucks (one of the reasons I am making the jump to 1050's, it can handle a bunch of steps just by pulling the handle).

Tumbling is my first step, so unless wet tumbling cleans the pockets with the primer in place, it wouldn't matter. I never clean pistol primer pockets, but since I've already got the machine on, and the primer brush is one inch from the swager, I've been doing it.

Buy a take off dillon rt1200 trimmer, slap it on the 550 in station 3 and you're gtg. Unless you're going to do 300 blk, then buy the 1500. You can step up your game with the Giraud but that takes you to another level of reloading.

The dillon's trim but not chamfer the neck, the Giraud does all of it. IMO, only rifle brass that's being loaded with flat bass bullets should be chamfered, unless you're into the high power, prs game.

There's a "Chinese Restaurant" in town, everything is listed as being in a brown(bean) sauce. The only difference between the Lo Mein and Chow Mein was the price. Wife said it was the Golden Corral of Chinese food.
The owner asked us How was your meal? I said let me in the kitchen and i'll show you how to make what's supposed to be on the menu.

I'd order sushi from Jack in the Box's late night menu, before we ate there again.
