Anyone use a Little Crow 223 trimmer?

How do you like it? Are they durable? They look cool.

Yes they work good. I have a few different brands and they all do a great job. Just remember it trims off the shoulder dimensions vs overall

What he said. It’s fast

I've used the Giraud Tool version and they do a good job but if you plan on doing a lot of brass at once ( > 100 pcs ) I'd suggest figuring out how top mount face up in a drill / motor of some sort. Makes the task much nicer.

This one looks interesting. Trim, chamfer, and deburr at the same time. Also has a cover for collecting brass trimmings. Thanks!

I run mine in my mini mill, I cut a little plastic cup to fit around it so the shavings fall down instead of all over the place.

Funnily enough, I do most calibers except .223
For .223 and 308, I have the dillon power trimmer. One tool head is set up just to resize then trim.. incredibly easy and fast to do thousands in one sitting.

It's awesome after adjustment it works fantastic Skeptical at first but I chuck it in a corded drill lock on the button in a vice makes short work of the process.

I have two now. 223 and 308. I haven’t used them much yet. I’m going to try my drill press soon. So far I like them.

I have several in different calibers, had them for 15+ years . I modified a water bottle for a shroud, trim on the work bench over a baking pan to collect the brass shavings, clamp an old cordless drill motor to the vise , with a zip tie holding the trigger. Im able to do roughly 200 cases per battery. They work ok, next im getting the dillon trimmer.
