ShinzoForster case trimmer collet, 10.75x68
Need to know what, if any, Forster case trimmer collet will work with this case, trimmer is about 30 yrs old so that would be the classic I reckon.
I tried to add this to an old thread but got nothing & before anyone suggests another kind of trimmer, I already have the Forster, don't want to buy anything different cause I reckon it works beaut. Just want to know what will work. Its a mail order thing from here so I can't just go into the nearest store & try them for fit.

ShinzoThanks Steve, thats exactly the info I needed. I suspected that would be the one but without the opportunity to try I couldn't be sure. Just have to hope that Forster get their online ordering back up soon.

Von GruffShinzo you could always do what I did for the 404 and chuck a piece of brass and make your own. A pleasurable half hour in the shed.

ShinzoVG, unfortunately my shed doesn't run to a lathe

(oneday), might show my No 1 to one of the fitters at work & see if anything could be done.

SCR, thanks for that link, I'll shoot an email off & see what can be done.
