Our BetterTrim1 system accepts the common 13/16-20 threaded trim dies from Lyman, Dillon, Whidden etc. (SIZING DIE NOT INCLUDED) to size and trim brass concurrently. Essentially the same trimmer we have sold for years, but with a new style of power supply.
Our motor is fairly quiet- 60db or so. Louder than a desk fan, quieter than most bathroom fans. *Hearing protection not required*. It spools up and down almost instantly (10ms) for each cut without risk of unscrewing itself like larger motor trimmers. A small plastic shield contains brass shavings which can be swept away with a chip or paint brush every fifty or so cases. No noisy vacuum necessary.
The drive motor is a DC permanent magnet design with ball bearing support. Shaft is heat treated tool steel, hub is 6061 treated to T6511. Cutter is titanium nitride coated tungsten carbide. Power supply is US standard 110 to 12vdc.
BetterTrim is made in USA.
Push the button or toggle switch and feed the brass. Best results are achieved with a smooth handle stroke and brief pause (1/2 second or so) to allow the cutter to finish and clean the cut. And yes, these will eat .223 down to .300blk but our Bettertrim2 version is far more effective for that application.

Cut at OAL, not from shoulder means consistent trim length. Brass is held rigid by the sizing operation to resist chatter for a clean and concentric finish cut.
