Anyone try the new Forster Bump Die?

[Skinny Shooter]

Was wondering if anyone tried this die yet?

Am looking for new reloading dies for a 243Win and want to minimize runout.
Bushings seem like the way to go with minimal neck sizing unlike what my standard RCBS neck dies do to brass.
I do have a Lee collet die for a 222 but am not happy with the inconsistent neck tension from it.
thanks,

Never tried the bump dies from anyone, never had to bump a shoulder back.
I use both RCBS & Redding neck dies and Lee collet dies on my brass and haven`t had any trouble with the shoulders being too far foreward. I do toss my cases though after 10-12 loads just as a habit.
A regular sizer die will bump the shoulder if you have one. I don`t think you will need it more then once or twice during the life of your cases. A regular hunting rifle likely will never know the difference unless it is a 1/4 MOA shooter or better.

Skinny, I haven't tried the Forster. I do use the Redding neck sizer with the bushings. One of the features that makes the Redding work so well is that the bushing floats- finding center naturally and not inducing runout. Whether the Forster die allows the neck bushing to float is not clear to me from the link page.
Measuring sized cases from the Redding die on my runout gauge suggests that the system works.
If you want a less expensive, but slower, alternative, the Wilson hand dies are inexpensive, and work very well. The Wilson neck die uses the same bushing as the Redding, btw.
With the Redding or Wilson die, if you get the titanium nitride coated bushing, no lubricant is required at all.

Ol Joe, never had to bump shoulders either.
Am looking for a bushing type die and this die allows you to neck-size only with a bushing. Also there is no expander button to pull the neck out of alignment.

Jack, does the Redding use an expander button?
I believe the Type S does have one and the Competition dies do not.

The expander in my RCBS neck-sizers seem to be part of the problem with excess concentricity I get.

Skinny, you're right- the standard Redding does, and the competition does not, have an expander.
I use a universal decapping die before tumbling and then brass processing, so the lack of expander/decapper is not an issue.
And I would suspect the expander in most dies is often the cause of some runout.
