There's no way you could chuck a case in a drill press, then run a case against a cutter.
That is exactly what I did in the photos on page 1 just to see if it would work and it did on the 44 mag case shown in the photos. I used a TiN coated HSS end mill shown in the first photo. You don't need carbide to turn .008 off of a brass case but you could use it for sure.

Well the drill presses I have had experience with, you couldn't. Even moderate side pressure would cause significant deviation. I suppose if you ran the table up until close to the chuck you might get away with it. My present $55.00 harbor freight drill press would never work for that, just too crude/loose. But that's not what I bought it to do.
I'm not trying to get in a ******* match either. Just trying to understand methods that might be used. I ran a turret lathe in a factory, and a big rockford machining Hyd. cylinder rods for 6 years before that. All that qualifies me to do some guessing how I'd proceed.
