## Description

Frankford Arsenal's Case Trim & Prep Center accurately trims brass in seconds. An innovative case holder with an adjustable collet and bushing system indexes the case shoulder and can be set to precisely trim brass to the exact desired length. Once the case holder is adjusted, simply insert brass into the case holder as a collet aligns the case squarely with the hi-speed cutter. As the case mouth contacts the cutter, it is trimmed until the case shoulder stops on an internal bushing. A series of three collets and six bushings (all included) accommodate any shouldered case from .17 Remington to .460 Weatherby. In addition to the cutter, the station operates up to three additional tools at the same time. The heavy-duty motor and drivetrain are optimized for durability and performance. A convenient built in storage box holds spare collets, bushings and tools.

Review: WORKS GREAT! - Let me start by saying, for the reviewers that write one star reviews because they are missing something, STOP IT...thats not the purpose of reviewing and these are assembled by humans, and humans can tend to make mistakes... I almost questioned whether to buy this because of the reviews about runout on the shafts, the difficulty of consistency of having brass fired from different guns, ect...they me tell you...DONT LISTEN TO THEM! This product is awesome for what is for, rapid case trimming for brass...if you are a match shooter or think you are a match shooter...use a hand trimmer...this is not meant for exact tolerances...that being said, I was pleasantly surprised that after 500 cases of .223, fired from various rifles, and checking randomly I was wishing .0002 in tolerance...totally good enough for my purposes. I have owned a RCBS trimmer since I got my first reloader 20 years ago...I have never trimmed my brass! I always would start it and after about 10 I had better things to do...and never had any real problems...I decided to check this batch of 1000 and found some of them were pretty long! and 95% were over a little...I dug out the hand trimmer, attached a drill and after 10 was done with this process... Looking around I didn't want to spend $500 on a trimmer (correction...wife wouldn't allow me to spend $500 on a trimmer!) and I came across this...having just purchased the FA Tumbler (awesome BTW over vibration and ultrasonic) I decided to make this purchase...and I don't regret it... As many have said, trimming cases is worse than watching paint dry, however I don't see any other product out there that can make you more efficient than this, I didn't have a grip issue...its really easy to use and set up, I was up and running out of the box in 10 min! It is about as loud as my can opener in the kitchen so my wife allows me to do this in the house (thank god since I live in Phoenix and its about 120 degrees in the garage!). Other negative reviews I have read: Inconstant length - If you read the manual (I know...heaven forbid) it states to turn the case a quarter of turn clockwise after it stops cutting FOR AN EVEN CUT...I did and it works, I always hear it snip a little more when I turn it. The tool heads are junk - Working fine for me...you are cutting brass, which is like hot butter in the metal world...doesn't take much to cut it Runout on the tool heads - And? So what...your holding the casing in your HAND, its not a stationary lathe...the case will move with the small amount of runout and what micrometer it will be off my crimp die takes care of when I put them in the press... As another review said...JUST BUY IT and you will be happy!

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Where do i order a carbide cutter head?**
A: The RCBS cutter part #90250 is the ultimate, It works very fast. I mean faster than steel or even TiN coated cutters. I tried several including a factory replacement. The TiN coated was better than steel, the carbide beats them all hands down.
It is finally back in stock at RCBS, after years of absense. I got 2 of them for 22 and 30 caliber. I recommend RCBS pilots also. 
Finally I'm getting my money's worth out of the Frankford trimmer.

**Q: How loud is the unit when running?**
A: I don't need ear plugs. For a piece of equipment this powerful and running all those gears, I feel the noise level is just fine. Sorry I don't have a Db meter. I would like to add, after prepping several hundred 5.56 and a few hundred 308 Win, that I am very happy with it! It is the easiest and fastest method to prep rifle brass yet! Wish I had known about it a long time ago!

**Q: Will this do both .243 and 30-06 brass ?**
A: Yes, it is universal. Will do anything from small rifle to large magnum cartridges.Thank you, Warrior Engineering, Inc.

**Q: Where can i get more collet incerts ? The ones I have are to britle and broke.**
A: You can buy the collet inserts from Cheaper Than Dirt website. A set of three collets will cost you $9.25 plus shipping.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Multi Station Case Prep Center
*by F***M on November 24, 2025*

Great product! It worked good for me and saved a little of time in prepping cases for reloading.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Works exactly how I hoped.
*by G***E on February 8, 2017*

Summary: Works great! Don't be anxious because of a few folks who are bagging on the debur tools. Go ahead and buy it if you are sick of holding a drill and switching off to hand tools for every case. After looking around at multiple tools and owning hand tools and a Lyman E-ZEE trim, I decided to go with this prep system. The other contender was the Hornady case prep center at over double the price and you still had to chuck a case in a shell holder before you could trim. I also considered the worlds finest trimmer, but at over $70 a pop I didn't feel like buying one for each caliber I was working with. With this prep center, you get the ability to setup for A LOT (I won't say all because I haven't tested them all) of bottle neck cartridges. I know the new versions of the worlds finest trimmer are able to be changed out for caliber now too though. So here's the other thing that makes this a bit nicer in my opinion. The case trimmer has a collet set that you can adjust to each case. This does a majority of the holding so the case does not spin. This allows you to avoid a lot of the hand pain associated with trying to keep the case from spinning in some other cutters (I know, I know...work on your hand strength wimp. RESPONSE: Sorry, too busy reloading and having fun shooting to be bothered with that ; ). As for quality and speed, I think it's great for what you are paying. The debur and chamfer tools ran smoothly and did not chatter in any of the 223 cases I was working with. I did about 400 cases over 2 nights working 1.5 hours the first night and 1 hour the second. That puts me at about 22 seconds per case. Keep in mind I was not only trimming and deburring but also checking for military crimps and sorting. Had this not been the case it would have been a bit faster. The machine runs fairly quiet and chugged right along. I'll be curious to see how it holds up after a few hundred hours of use. As for trimming accuracy, I set my case length to 1.750" (Rem 223). I saw variation between 1.750" and 1.748". I'm sure that's an issue for some competition shooters, but for anyone interested in large volume reloading for general use rounds it will work any day. Just make sure to follow directions when setting up and pay attention to which collet and ring you are supposed to use. Conclusion....buy it. You won't be sorry. I plan on using it to prep 223, 308, 30-06, 300 AAC and 243 initially.
