There's no reason to trim them unless you plan to crimp.
You should size the case necks at minimum, that's what I generally do with new brass. Most here size new brass full length. Then check the length to determine whether the cases should be trimmed. |

I would trim after sizing, then debur. Depends on your trimming method, and what kind of loads you will use them for.
If I were going to use them for precession loads, I would also uniform the PP's and debur the flashole. As far a safety is concerned, if they are less than 1.761, no need to trim. |

You say they are all under max length? If it's for plinking, don't bother. If for matches, trim all to same length.

They will be for 77gr SMK "match" loads. Which for me, are pretty much just .5 MOA plinking rounds. I don't have a PP uniformer, but I do debur the flash hole. |

Just want to validate this, If I want to make precision loads, I should trim to mmaximum uniform OAL?
