What presses and dies are you using and general equipment recommendations.

You can find used power trimmers for sale on eBay and there are always used floor model drill presses for sale cheap for a dedicated trimmer. Most bench drill presses do not have a stop that is consistent enough for accurate trimming. You could use the Forster 3-in-1 trimmer in their standard case trimmer setup. You can power the standard trimmer with a drill motor or power screwdriver.

I did option 2 and just ran through 200 cases faster than I would have gone through 75, and that's with measuring every single one and observing +-.0005 deviation. Small cheap cordless drill, dedicated setup for 6.5 and .223, and a 3rd cutter for whatever else (meant for non-static setup, I have all the pilots already)
