Surprised this wasallowed to go so far off track.
I recently bought a Lyman Case Prep Express on the recommendation of a friend who got one before Christmas. I have used it on 7.62x51 brass and it was a lot quicker than using my hand tools as you can do all the necessary stages whilst only having the case in your hand once, if you understand what I mean.
So know I deprime, tumble, resize and then everything else is done on the case prep station.
CDSG Ltd had them reduced recently, might be worth taking a look.

Re: Case prep stations
What do you guys use to trim cases before getting on to the Lyman station?

Re: Case prep stations
Snap! Lyman universal case trimmer. But I also got a Lee adaptor which allows you to mount ht eLee cutter and case gauge on to one of the stations.

Re: Case prep stations
I have always operated on the KISS principal when it comes to case preparation.
For trimming, it's either Lee Quick Trim or ball cutter and case gauge and de-burr with an RCBS tool.
I clean brass with baking powder and hot water and/or fine steel wool for stubborn stains.
As I prepare brass normally in batches 0f 50, I have found no need for mechanised stations.
