Thanks guys, you confirmed pretty much what I suspected. I process several thousand rounds of brass annually, but not enough after any range session to be worth a lot of work or expense. I can just use the Shell Shorter with the extra 38 Super and .380ACP plates.
The comment about cameras has me thinking about an Arduino-controlled sorter, but again, that's too much work for the application.
Thanks,
Chas.

Drilling precision holes
I'd like to build this brass sorter, but I have no idea how to drill the precise holes that would be needed. Not counting .45ACP and .40 S&W, here are the the holes I'm worried about: .380 ACP (.374"), 9mm (.391") and 38 Super (.406").
Is it possible to drill these holes within a 0.002 - 0.005 using a drill press?
