    I have to agree with Armed. I like the Forsters.

    I am a Redding man myself and have several of their competition seaters. I can't say they are worth the extra $15-25 over the Forster. Lots of good choices. Luck, Tim

    +4 for the Forster. If you can swing it, get the sizer also. It does a super job of keeping necks centered on case via its raised expander ball. Just wish they made an expander ball in carbide.

    +6 on the Forster seater. I have one for my .308 and one for my 220Swift. If you want them straight buy the Forster.

    The $98 bucks from midway ain't the issue! Finding someone that has them in stock is the problem anyone know who else sells them?
