On the 3006 I load 50 at a time so i just use the lee.....but on the 6.8 I've prepared as many as 500 at sitting, that's when you want more speed, or you will go nuts trimming brass.

Now if you want to go all in try this one.... http://www.giraudtool.com/prod02.htm

And Dillon makes a nice one .... http://www.dillonprecision.com/content/p/9/pid/23636/catid/8/Dillon__039_s_Rapid_Trim_1200B_Case_Trimmer

Expensive. Id just get a smaller one and attach a small motor to it.

Ok question. On a 30.06. The full measure from top of neck to bottom outside of casing is said to be by spec, 2.494

I measured mine after resize and it comes out to 2.489. So thats a tad bit smaller then recommended and i didn't even case trim.

So how much off is a worry point?

2.494 is your max case length...you can trim to 0.02 under the max.

Good Stuff on this site.... http://riflemansjournal.blogspot.com/2010/03/reloading-measuring-case.html
