I got a lee deluxe quick trim and it seems pretty quick but i have nothing to compare it to. Whats the quickest way you've found to trim brass?

100% I have a wft 2 with about 6-7 inserts. I sprang for the carbide end mill quickly. I have over 7k pieces of brass trimmed on the carbide end mill so far...still super fast and sharp.Got a WTF 2. It’s great. And I keep it around.
As stated it’s good for plinking brass but to much handling brass.
After trimming I would run the cases through tumbler. Wet or dry. Knocks the burrs off the outside. Then I used to run a Lyman my die through the neck when loading. Knocks the burrs off. Saves the chamfer deburr step.
I also purchased a couple different end mill bits off eBay. The one that comes with the trimmer is crap. Dulls quickly.
I use mine in my wood lathe, quick enough. Put the chamfer/bevel tool in the lathe as well. As Palmettomoon says above, the giraud is probably best, but at this point the WFT is a sunk cost and is good enough.WFT trimmer for me, fast but you still have to chamfer and deburr, use for plinking .223. Mines mounted in a Delta drill press. Lee quick trim die for precision stuff.
