Hi. I just joined the forum and have a question. I currently have an old style Redding case trimmer with the notched blade cutter, and just today purchased a Lee case trimmer. The Redding is a P-I-T-A to use because my arm and fingers get tired and sore way before I am am ready to quit. The Lee lets me add a drill into the process and greatly speeds up the process. However I primed a lot of the brass already (before getting the Lee trimmer) and the Lee won't seat properly, of course, because the primer is in the way.
So, now I have a nice, simple, faster way to trim my brass than with the Redding, but now I'm still stuck with using the Redding because of the primer issue.
My main question is this: can a cutter (4 blades) and shaft from a newer Redding fit and work in an older style 1400 with the notched blade cutter? Or am I destined to grow an overly developed right arm from cranking this thing for hours and hours?
Thanks,
