How to trim hundreds of 243 or .308 to 1.2"?

The Lee cutter with replaceable case length gages in the center that give exact, repeatable results is pretty slick. If you've got a way to chuck it into a lathe or drill press you can zip through them relatively quickly. Sure don't know what it'd take to get 1.2", but there's probably an existing case length already - even if it's not exactly 45 caliber.

And here's a universal chuck that works with it as well, might be handy in a lathe or drill press.
