Hornady lock-N-load prep case trio

I have the big heavy motorized unit that trims and everything, I Love it. Now I bought mine a few years ago when there were first introduced, so it cost me now where near the $750 price tag they are now. love motorized primer pocket cleaning and all the other things it does.

Old fingers and hands are exactly why I'm leaning toward either the Lyman's or Hornady case prep motorized tool. I'm thinking Lyman has the best bang for the buck.
 
I to have been looking for something for in/out deburring but the Hornady looks like you will have to tie it down or use one hand to hold it. I think one you press straight down on might be easier like the Lyman/RCBS.
 
I have the Hornady's lock-N-load prep case trio and it does take two hands to use. And as Seagull stated above the Lyman or RCBS units that you press straight down on could be used one handed.

Uniforming primer pockets and crimp removal requires a firm grip on the Hornady tool. The main advantage with the Hornady tool vs a hand drill is stopping to change the bits.

But a hand drill has higher speed and cuts faster when uniforming primer pockets and removing crimped primer pockets. NOTE, Large batches of cases can cause sore hands and fingers no matter which type tool is used.
 
I have the lyman it works well. That said when doing crimp removal If I could find one of those kids plastic plier tools that used to come in some of the little kids tool kits it would be a big help holding the shell case. wouldn't mark the case and less fatigue on the old mechanics wrists
real non marring pliers cost is out of site.
