Forster Reloading Dies and Case TrimmersWhile they're most famous for their Original Forster Case Trimmers (invented in 1946), Forster brings an equal amount of expertise, innovation, and precision to their reloading dies.Forster Full Length Bench Rest Reloading 2-Die Sets - These sets include the innovative Forster full length sizer and Bench Rest seater dies. The full length sizer has Forster's E-Z OUT expander ball system that allows positioning of the expander for the best mechanical advantage. This elevated position combines with a Co-Ax mounting washer that corrects any misalignment of the decapper/ expander assembly and prevents the case neck from pulling off center. The Bench Rest Seater Die features an innovative, caliber-specific Die Chamber (Fig. 7). It holds the case, the bullet and the seating stem all in perfect alignment; supporting the entire outside diameter of the sized case rather than just the bullet and case neck. To further enhance alignment and accuracy potential, these dies do not crimp* (neck tension is achieved with the sizer die). Please click the images above to enlarge and view detail. *30-30 die DOES have crimping.Info/Order Forster Full Length Bench Rest 2-Die Set (list $99) Price $68Forster's Original Case Trimmer System and Accessories - Invented in 1946, the Forster Case Trimmer continues to be the best system for trimming cartridge case mouths. From it's I-Beam alignment system to its modern use of power screw drivers and drills to make trimming even easier, Forster has continued to innovate and advance this tool. Its really a miniature lathe. Cartridge brass is held in place and aligned by collets and fitted pilots. A multi-blade cutter then trims and squares each case mouth to exactly the same length. Once you have the trimmer, you can add neck turning, neck reaming, hollow pointing, chamfering, and other attachments.

There are 4 basic collets (#1, #2, #3, #4) for the Original Forster Case Trimmer and between them they fit just about every case rim in existence. Pilots are numbered like the calibers they represent: #22 is 223 caliber. #24 is 243 caliber (6mm). #26 is 264 caliber (6.5mm)... And so on. We've linked the Collet and Pilot Selection Chart (above) to show you which ones you need by cartridge name. We also have them listed Dimensionally by Collet # and Dimensionally by Pilot #. Questions? Call 800-950-9088. If you're just getting started and haven't bought your case trimmer yet, we recommend the "Kit" above as it includes 3 collets and 6 pilots and costs less than ordering them individually. To order collets and pilots individually, just click the "Info/Order" links below and select your collet(s) and pilot(s) from the menus.
