After spending hours shortening shells with BPI's cutter, I saw this and ordered one from Byrdog. Well, it works great and anyone who loads for a 2 9/16" gun needs one. |

You're welcome. It's a great product that I wish I'd had 2 years ago, though nothing makes you appreciate a tool like struggling without it for a while. |

Guys, I just received mine. There aren't too many products that have worked as well for me as what you se on You tube but this one certainly does. If you need a hull trimmer this is the way to go.

The cutter works well, and had one made for my smaller gauges as well. Find myself compulsive shortening hulls as it's so much fun! |

After watching the video and reading reviews, I ordered one. I spent 15 min last night trimming 75 hulls. It does the job just that fast. I wish I had one three weeks ago when it took a full hour to trim 25 hulls. |

I received mine yesterday. This is just downright fun! Anybody want to buy a BPI trimmer? |

Looks like it works well with plastic hulls. How does it work with papers??
Thanks |

The Cutter is for plastic hulls. Paper hulls have to be cut from the outside inward to compress the fibers at the edge of the cut. |
