Isn't this pretty cool? Should make case trimming easier and quicker.
New Hornady Power Trimmer

Anything to make that process easier is a good thing. I've got the Frankford Arsenal case prep center and it makes things much easier than the old lathe type, even with using a drill to power it. I've even got some adapters to use for my straight-wall cases in 45-70, 45 Colt, and 360 BH.

I been using the Giraud for years, works for me. Most of the time its a one time trim, without the power trimmer its a tiring chore when doing a large batch of 100 or more.

Just wow indeed. It's the Henderson trimmer you talking about. Looks very similar.

I use a Foster trimmer with a cordless drill. I don't seem to find a need to trim very often and this trimmer gets the job done for me. At $600+, I'll keep what I have. However, some guys like to trim before every reload. This new trimmer sure would make things quick & easy.
I trim before every load, but I would need some real convincing that this unit is significantly better than my $170 FA trimmer (which I bought for $100).
