Clark, why so hard? I bought new .270 winchester brass and ran it through my 6.5-06 die, then trimmed and trimmed and trimmed some more......yep that sucked alright.... Finally chucked that trimmer in my cordless and boom, 50 pieces of brass trimmed to 3.484.
Then tested each umprimed brass to make sure it chambered, and that I set my die up right....
Now I have over 100 pieces of brass that have their own coffee can to keep separate from .270 win.....
