Get a Sinclair catalog.

They have a solid carbide primer pocket uniformer that works very well.
It stops cutting a the correct depth.

There are a number of flash hole uniformers available, the problem with many is that they depend on case length.
Better ones have a sleeve over the cuter and stop on the inside of the case head instead of indexing of the case mouth.

I usually avoid trimming cases until they have been fired at least once, especially if you are blowing them out to AI.
The brass may actually get shorter as it expands in diameter.

I do check every noew case to make sure it is not already long.

Two things to do that will improve accuracy. Then work on the loads. However, with the 700 SPS it may not be as critical as it is with the 700 ADL or BDL that have wood stocks.
