Yes, the 223 brass I trimmed before was fine.Wow! That is a huge variation. I've got one of the Lyman ones that's similar and I consistently get them within 0.0015" Are you using the correct bushing that goes in the case mouth?
I'm trying to trim 308 brass and I'm getting from 1.995-2.015 on average sometimes up to 2.060 on the same casing. There's a small wobble in the brass while it's trimming, but I've read the trim pro 2 does that. Any ideas? I've gotten 3 out of 12 pieces that are right.
im using a rcbs trimmer it holds the case rim.Check all of the adjustment screws one more time. I had one back off once and got similar results to yours.
The Trim it 2 indexes off the shoulder so the OAL could be different, while the measurement from shoulder is spot on. Could be different shoulder setbacks during resizing.

I read lengths within .015 are fine is that true?
The holder sucks
Yep. I suppose it depends on what you want the ammo to do. For plinkers, it's probably fine. For shooting groups, no way..015 isn't a deal breaker, it will work. But I would consider it excessive, and try to find the cause.
Not yet, trying to figure it out before I go that route.Have you called RCBS? They are excellent about helping out and even replacing their parts for free if there is an issue.
Where did you get the brass? I've had some "once fired" brass that wobbled pretty bad in the trimmer. I suspect I got some machine gun stuff.Not yet, trying to figure it out before I go that route.
I'm getting between 1.990-2.010 on average. This is for 600 yards. Feel like I wasted 60 pieces of brass
I don't hesitate to call RCBS when I think I have a problem. They are great folks to deal with and understand exactly what I'm talking about. Give them a call.Not yet, trying to figure it out before I go that route.
