About to buy a Wilson case trimmer. Looking on their site and have a quick question. All I need is the trimmer and case holder right?

Consider getting a power screwdriver attachment.  They make life much better...

I got the Sinclair set-up.

I got the micrometer setup from Sinclair with the screwdriver adapter.  Wish they made a 3-way cutter head for this so you didn't have to chamfer and debur separately.

I think the stand and case holder clamp offered by Sinclair is probably useful. My Wilson Case Trimmer was so modified by Dan Kinneman, when he was in business (I think he had a better clamp). But the Sinclair "shark fin" stand would be useful along with their base. That white delrin thing on the base is nice for tapping the cases out of the case holders.

I've got a Wilson, with the power adaptor and really like it for what I do.

Looked at the shark fine and am saving up for that, Still have to champher and debur though.

YMMV

Been looking for a new trimmer for a while now. I think I'm going with one of these with the micrometer attachment.

I read in an archived thread that Sinclair's has dealer discounting with a C&R license. Can anyone who already has a dealer account with Sinclair's tell me what the dealer discount price is on this trimmer?

Also interested in seeing if there's a dealer discount on the case holders?

I'll be needing four of them. I don't have a C&R, but a friend does and said he could send in his info and order it for me. I just want to see first if it's worth his time to do that.

Thanks

Now that Brownell's owns Sinclair they've set up a single ordering system, so I'm betting the FFL discount will apply.  Won't cost anything to try.

I use my C&R for brownell's but when I called and talked to a rep at Sinclair she said they don't do discounts.  She could have been wrong/having a bad day etc., call them and ask.

I mounted mine to a cutting board with a deep chanel around the edge to catch the shavings... worked out nicely

I gave Brownell's a call today. Their dealer discount doesn't bring the price below their current sale price, and the discount isn't applied toward a sale price, so it doesn't get me anywhere in this case.
