I'm doing reasearch to see if this will be my next project. I'd build a Oly flat top upper with 20" barrel. (The factory is only 10 miles away, I think I can buy direct)
I have a few months to figure things out, I'd want to use 125 NBT or Hornady SSP's and push them as fast as possible( 2400fps...right?)

Take care

I didn't use the trim die.

I used to use the dremel with the wheel and found that it bounced around a lot and that it was pretty messy.

The pipe cutter is not the fastest method, but it's really clean, quiet and can be done right infront of the TV.

I tried turning a bunch of necks when I 1st got started, found that they didn't need it (NATO brass and Winchester). I did have to turn a bunch of Hornady brass, these seemed to have really thick case walls.

I've never had to turn necks. I think oly barrels are larger in the neck spec. that SSK barrels are.
