Cheap 'n easy trimmer for 32-20?

[The Kurgan]

I bought a bunch of Starline 32-20 brass and many of them appear to need an initial trim. I have never had to trim 32-20 brass before and I don't have a trimmer that will fit. Any suggestions?

Lee, custom order. Or a Wilson with the appropriate holder.

The .32-20 uses a .314" bullet. Assuming you have a .30 calibre pilot, it should be close enough. Trim-to is 1.305".
You have rifle data? If not, I do.

I find it very odd that new Star Line brass would need trimming, especially in a calibre like 32-20.
What are the measurements that you consider too long?

Well there you go, Remote found all you need.

Actually not too long, but uneven rims... it showed after I crimped.

Thanks for all the tips guys. I stopped off at Lebaron in Mississauga today and bought their last Lyman Accutrimmer and an RCBS 32-20 shell holder.
Set it up this afternoon and it worked perfectly! I used to own the Lyman Universal Case Trimmer, but I actually like this one better.

The .30 cal pilot fit nicely.

As I noted above, a bunch of my new Starline brass (about 7 to 8% of them) had somewhat uneven rims and some more so than others, which really showed after crimping to my H&N .314 lead wadcutter bullets. All fixed now.
