1967spud Posted June 23, 2009 Report Share Posted June 23, 2009 rob is right , the drill attachment is the way to go and you get one with k&m as well just undo the allen key on the handle and bobs your uncle Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Agreed, that black knob on the hand clamp gets a tad hard on your fingers after a couple of hundred. Needs to be tightened a fair bit to stop slipping, at least with .308 cases.

Andrew Posted June 23, 2009 Report Share Posted June 23, 2009 I use a Forrester attachment for my Forrester Trimmer. I don't turn necks often but when I do, this unit does a fine job.~Andrew Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Following that i would like to neck turn the cases. Never done this before and any comments on turning tools to use? any experiance with borden actions? Curious as to why the neck turning decision prior to the results of a fired round to measure neck thickness or runout? Why the selection of Lapua brass and by fireform do you mean first fired brass? Not trying to be a butthead. I just see a different approach than my own so I am looking for the foundation knowledge. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1967spud Posted June 25, 2009 Report Share Posted June 25, 2009 you only need to neck turn a case once and ideally that should be before you fire it for the first time Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
