Trimming the brass
Posted: May 7th, 2017, 9:50 pm
I am having a hell of a time with my first attempt to trim 9mm brass to 9x18 .
I have the Makarov trim die for my loader and the Manual cutter and the drill mounted cutter. Each one gives me no constant results. The instructions say trim to I hear no more cutting. I don't hear anything. I trim until I see the adjusting dial touch the die. One time I get .699, sometimes I get .712, and other times something in the middle.
Does anyone have a system I can put the brass in a holder and cut it with consistent results?
I like Lee stuff but I am very frustrated with the system I use.
I need help!!
