I`m getting prepped up to trim brass

I will be reloading 223 & 6.5 Creedmoor. I want something that makes this process as easy/fast as possible and as far as i can see only the Giraud trims & chamfers the inside and outside at the same time so one pass leaves the cartridge good to go

As I have a Dillon 650 I considered a RT1200 or RT1500 which fit onto the press but I decided against this for 2 reasons, it doesn't chamfer inside/outside and I don't plan to trim 6.5 Creedmoor on my progressive (got a Forster single stage on its way)

Are there any other products on the markets I should be looking at?
 
Gracey trimmer. Trims to length, chamfers inside and out and take about 2-3 seconds per case. Work like an electric pencil sharpener.
 
I have the lee quick trim with a drill. Works fine. Trims, chamfers inside and out in one pass. They call it the DELUXE POWER QUICK TRIM. Not expensive but you need a die (about 14$ each) for each calibre. Worth trying unless you are anti-Lee for some reason.

I think I bought mine at x-reload but not 100% sure.

I also have a lyman E-ZEE Trim, which works ok, also with a drill, but doesn't chamfer the inside or outside. Comes with a bunch of pilots for a bunch of calibres and new ones are cheap at around 4$.

I much prefer the Lee over the lyman. If you want to make large volume make sure you have something motorized cause trimming by hand gets long and boring really fast.
