17 Pilot and Cutter
The Hornady® 17 Pilot and Cutter system features precision-engineered pilots that are fully interchangeable within the Hornady cam-lock case trimmer. Designed specifically for metallic and semi-metallic cartridge reloading, these pilots ensure exact case neck alignment and concentricity during the trimming process, which is critical for maintaining consistent case length and optimal bullet seating depth.
Utilizing advanced metallurgy and precision machining, the 17 Pilot and Cutter assembly enhances the efficiency and accuracy of your reloading setup. The interchangeable pilot design allows reloaders to quickly switch between calibers without compromising the trimming quality, making it an indispensable tool for precision shooters and competitive marksmen who demand repeatable, high-performance results.
Optimized for use with Hornadys cam-lock trimming system, the 17 Pilot and Cutter deliver superior case neck uniformity and reduce runout, which directly contributes to improved ballistic consistency and tighter groupings downrange. Whether you are working with brass or semi-metallic cases, this system provides the reliability and precision necessary for advanced handloading and custom ammunition fabrication.
