I'm thinking about getting one and would appreciate any feedback from those who have used this die. I'm mostly wondering if the die keeps run out to a minimum. Thanks

All Forster dies are benchrest dies. That's all they make.
I care about runout, and my new dies that arrived from Brownells came in a pretty read box labeled Forester.

Currently I have been useing the Forster benchrest seater dies and neck sizing with a Lee collet die. For bumping the shoulder every once in a while I use redding body dies. This is my die set up for everything and it does produce very straight ammo.
Lately however I have been wondering if or when I get dies for a new cartridge if I wouldn't be better off getting a Forester bushing bump neck sizer die in place of the Redding Body Die/ Lee Collet. Kind of a One Die that serves two purposes and perhaps an added benefit of never working the sides of the case possibly extending case life even more. It seems the Forster bushing bump neck sizer die is new enough it's difficult to find anyone with actual experience with this die. I will have to get one and give it a try anyways.
If anyone has all ready tried this die please feel free to comment
