I use Forster trimmers but would like to hear any comments regarding the "World's Finest Trimmer".

Thanks.

Cal, is that that fancy one Sinclair sells that only works for a couple different cartridges, indexes off the shoulder? Or are you speaking in more general terms? I know RIO is very fond of his Forster and I am very fond of my LE Wilson/Sinclair set up. One thing I really like on mine is the fact that I can determine finished length w/ a caliper before I even throw a piece of brass at it. This is due to the fact that it does not use a collet. I just measure from the face of the stop to the head of the cutter.

Yes, it is the fancy, one trick pony, trimmer that indexes off the shoulder. They claim it is faster and more precise. Anyway, I'm very happy with my Forster too but I'm willing to ponder other options.

Got it. Went to "Little Crow Gunworks" website and watched the second video, comparing it to a Hornaday Trimmer. Appears to be both, fast and accurate in comparison. Looks like they make it for a large variety in cartridges if you order from them. The main drawback being that it is cartridge specific. So, my EXPERT OPINION AND COUNCIL is thus: You should buy one and let us know how it works. If it appears to be a winner, you should let us all try it out. I am sure you would have it back in as little as 2-3 years! Seriously, I bet it is a good one but, have never seen or used one. Have you done a Google search for reviews?

Not sure what the best one is,but after trimming 900 cases with my upgraded Wilson trimmer,using a cordless screw driver,I sure was wishing for a Giraud.And I still have twice that many to trim.Plenty of time though.

You think he would call his brother, but no. Just finished trimming 200 pieces in about 1.5 hours with the WFT. I like it and it is quite accurate.
