Really depends on how much pressure the screw is set for when doing it. A bit of pressure, gradually produces the least amount of inside burr (easily cleaned up with an Xacto knife like Max said), but some people put too much cut per turn of the cutter, in some cases can reduce the inner diamter of the tube (copper pipe or brass barrel) by 0.5mm or more at the end.
