I'm not sure I understand what you want to do, but have you tried the Scrub tool for this?
Mac Mini Server i7 2.66 GHs/16 GB RAM / OSX 10.14 / DP 9.52
Tascam DM-24, MOTU Track 16, all Spectrasonics' stuff,
Vienna Instruments SUPER PACKAGE, Waves Mercury, slaved iMac and Mac Minis running VEP 7, etc.

I think the snap functions only go down to 10 milliseconds, so you might not be able to get exact increases and decreases at 5 millisecond increments with something like the scissors tool. If it helps, you can zoom in all the way in the sequence editor, and move the trim tool in fractions of milliseconds.
