WFT brass trimmer

Post by slinco »

I just received my new WFT (Worlds Finest Trimmer) in the mail today
I ordered the .223 model, it took about 15 minutes to get it properly adjusted and I was rockin"
I knocked out 70 pieces of brass in about 10 minutes and every case was consistent at 1.749".
$75.00 shipped to my door from Midway, attaches to any electric/cordless drill.
They make a model for most calibers, any of you guys out there reloading a lot of brass might want to look into it.
I have been using a Lyman manual trimmer until now, what a difference!
No affiliation with the company, I just think this product is a great deal for the money.
littlecrowgunworks.com or WFT trimmer at Midwayusa.
Anyone else using one of these?

They seem to work great from what I have read. I do not use one, but if I were changing my brass prep, I'd buy one.
One day I may get in a hurry and buy one, but for now I'm happy with the speed in which I prep my brass.
I have plenty of time but less money ;-)

I don't really mind the time it takes using the Lyman, I could just never get a consistent trim length with it.
Could be operator error!

You have the right idea....Consistency is the key.

I just load very few rifle rounds, mostly pistol.
If I did more rifle, I'd have one like that.
I've looked at them before and I liked the idea and price compared to the Geraud Trimmer or others.

This thread piqued my interest so I bought one for .223.

I got it in the mail last week and used it yesterday.

With the help of a buddy (who benefits from my reloading), we were able to easily lube, size, and trim 1000 pieces of brass yesterday! I could have never done this before.

I always dreaded trimming (been using the Lee Zip Trim), but this has made the process much more tolerable!

Thanks for the recommendation.

I bought this trimmer based on the comments in this thread. It works as advertised and makes loading a big batch of 223 ammo much more pleasant. Like ddstuder, I dreaded trimming cases as well but this things makes it so easy and fast. I highly recommend this tool to anyone that loads bottleneck cases.
