And swage primer pockets. As long as time isn't a huge issue, that's what I'm going for. I'm really only setting up for 5.56/223 right now, but 7.62x51/308 is next. Those are the only calibers (rifle anyway) I load in large quantity. I HATE trimming milsurp brass. Detest it more than anything else firearms related. I was sitting around a while back and just couldn't believe there wasn't a better way. Long story short, I built a machine to handle the "pre-assembling tasks". I will eventually completely automate the entire process, but am still working on the visual recognition software for the robot. Trying to find a new ultrasonic sensor for powder checking that will live happily with my programming code as well.
Problem I have is I'm quickly running out of cases to prep with all the test runs. I'd like to gather 5000ish rounds. That will give me 1400 for final tweaking, and then 3600 for a solid hour of full capacity. All told, the trimmer will do about 1k/hr and the size/deprime/whatever will do one per second. Annealing looks like 8 seconds per case, but I can't make that go any faster.
Cost? Not this go-round. If if all goes as planned and everything turns out good, I'll figure what it costs to run/maintain the machine and maybe stick a penny of "profit" on each case.
I only have a handful of .308's when you get around to it.
