I'd say the 2nd one is just the black piece on the rod of the first. Make sense?

You might make sure that it unscrews from the handle before you buy, Lyman actually makes one too that would work.
 
H.E.

LESS is more with flash hole debur...! You can 100% F*ck a piece of brass up in a heartbeat by getting carried away with flash hole debur. Full length size, then trim brass to a consistent length, then set the debur tool to the absolute least that will _Just_Barely_Touch_ the flash hole. Even so, with a LOT of brass out there, it may not always engage the flash hole on every piece of brass due the the fact most brass is Punched...

Be damn careful with primer pockets, and flash holes...!

Good advice. Thanks. Maybe I'll try it by hand first.
 
The "expensive one" is the complete tool set up with the adjustable collet set for one caliber.

The "cheap one" is just the collet for a single caliber.

Buy one expensive one for your first caliber, and the appropriate cheap caliber collet for every other caliber. The set screw allows removal and length adjustment.
