Re: trim or resize
I resize first then trim to length. You’ll need to full length resize if they are once fired.

Re: trim or resize
Design, with the case held and the dies moving on the ram it can also serve as an arbour press, there are no working parts below the bench edge, the leverage coming over the top means it can be used without mounting other than on its base board, spent primer catching, the build quality, was UK made, loads of add ons for bullet sizing, lubing, swaging, priming.
Don't you see its superior qualities now you have one?
