Thumbs Up for the Forster Case Trimmer

[ShooterAZ]

I recently purchased the "kit", which includes 3 collets and pilots for 22,24,25,27,28,and 30 caliber. This is an awesome tool guys! Trims right on the money every time, and is so easy to use it isn't funny. Until now I have been using the Lee cutter method. The Forster is way faster and much more precise. I recommend this, and it is one of the best investments I have made in a while. I may get some of the "hollow pointing" mandrels for it soon.

Yup, definitely my favorite trimmer too.

Shooter since you mentioned hollow pointing bear in mind the shaft will fit a 3/16 inch drill bit to do just that! I looked at the hollow point bits made for the tool and they came in 1/16 and 1/8 inch. Purty winky hollow points eh? I'm loading .44/45 and I want a big hollow point. I've even drilled shallow ones on .358 with the 3/16 bit. You might need to shorten the bit and use a "jobber length" bit if you can find one. Oh, and I chuck the boolits right in the collet. Not the whole loaded ca'tridge...just the boolit. With a bit of care it won't deform them. Audie...the Oldfart..

Add the Forster 3-way cutter and it gets even better.

I made an adapter so I could hook an old power window motor to mine. Much better results turning necks that way.

I love those electric window motors. I used one for annealing purposes.

They have quite a bit of torque, I even use them on my auto reset plate racks.

Jmorris, is there anything you don't make? Man I wish I had the talent to do the stuff you do. Rod
