444, I agree with you that the Lee is easy, but I was unsatisfied with it in that it does not allow you to adjust the depth of the cut. You're stuck with what they deem as "trim-to-length".

I thought of shortening the depth gauge, but I went with the forster, and I'm pretty satisfied. I get exceptionally accurate cuts, consistently. It's not the fastest thing on the planet, but it's not slow by any means.

If you really want fast, look at the Gracie or Giraud trimmers.
