Best, most accurate/repeatable case trimmer?

I used Lee quick trim dies with a Lee Deluxe Quick Trim Case Trimmer in a Breech Lock Reloader Single Stage Press. This is a really lightweight press and while it would be possible to use it for reloading, I find it is perfect for trimming brass. I now use the Lee Deluxe Power Quick Trim Case Trimmer with the same press. Works well as long as the shellholder is kept clean. I removed the inside and outside blades as it 'cut' too much. Easier and far more reliable to do the neck cleanup with a Lyman Case Prep Center.
 
I was underwhelmed with the WFT and sold them. I now use the Lee quick trim which is quick and works well. It has a fairly large smooth crank which is easier on my slightly arthritic hands.
 
Thanks for the input guys, greatly appreciated.

Wilson is the most accurate I've ever seen. perfect to .001"

^can you provide a link to the exact trimmer? As stated...would need to make sure it's 17H/.223/.204/.243 Win-capable.

Also interested in the Lee one you mount in your press. I need to look into whether or not it can handle all the aforementioned cases.

Thanks again guys, greatly appreciated.
 
only issues I have with a WFT it that it throws shavings everywhere (solved by draping a paper towel over the thing and having a chip pan underneath) and that when a chip or two end up in the mouth of it you'll have cases end up long, so I check for debris often.

Other than that I would never go back to a hand crank trimmer like the lyman that I've not used in years
