    Yeah, I have the same one you are using, but I stopped using it after I bought the ballistic tools swage gage and discovered it was too easy to mess up the primer pockets and allow the no go gauge to fit. Here's a link to that $12 tool. https://ballistictools.com/store/swa...-primer-pocket

    The frankford trimmer is adjustable too, but the lyman looks easier to adjust.

    And I’m just using the cheap reamer that doesn’t have a stop, but I have yet to take too much material out of a case, I think it bottoms out on the inside of the pocket. It came in a Lyman multi pack that had chamfer, deburr, small and large pocket cleaners, and small and large pocket reamers. I think it was like $20 for the whole thing and it’s lasted me a few years.
