Hey welcome to the Hide
IMHO a Giraud case trimmer is a way better investment, it will trim chamfer in/out a case in less than 5 seconds, a cordless drill to uniform the primer pocket and deburr the flashholes, fast and precise.

Re: Lock-N-Load® Power Case Prep Center
It works well enough for me. I have RCBS thre way trimmers for 5.56, .308, .338 LM and 6.5 Grendel so it trims, chamfers and deburs those in one pass. Other calibers I have to chamfer manually on other station. Hornady pocket reamer takes care of my military crimps.
The negatives 1) it is slower than Giraud, but will trim wider range of calibers 2) The fuse that will burn out before the motor should be located in a more accessible location (in fact, one of these days I will change that). 3) I wish the adjustment screw was a more of a fine thread for finer adjustment; once the unit is set it stays that way, but I may have to go through half a turn to get it there.
