Neck Turning....which tool?

[350 Mag]

Alot of info out there.

I don't want to break the bank.

Top reviews seem to be the 21st Century and K&M.

But I allready own a Forster Case trimmer...

So wondering IF anyone uses the Forster kit with good results.

It's $58 USD for the outside neck turning kit from Forster.

You can also get inside neck Turner/reamer to size inside of fire formed brass.

Interesting indeed.

I been happy with my Forster system.

Several years ago I prepped 1k of 204 Ruger brass. SAAMI spec chamber so I only "trued" the necks after annealing. Removed material anywhere from 25% to 80% of the neck.

This past winter I did 500 necks for my 223 Rem varmint rifle, this has a slightly tighter neck chambering (.252" if I recall correctly). This was similiar to my 204 brass in that it was more "neck truing" rather than completely turning the neck down.

I have no experience with other systems but for this amateur, the Forster is pretty slick.

I use the Forster with a power drill. Very repeatable and fast.

Dont forget PMA tool but the cost is will be comparable to the 21st century or K&M
