I am confused about the correct reamer needed. I see that Forster has a .452 reamer. Is that the correct reamer? I am also confused about when to ream the case. Before sizing, after sizing, before firing, after firing, etc. I have a RCBS case trimmer. Has anyone had any luck getting the Forster reamer to fit into a RCBS trimmer? Thanks.

Forster shanks are 0.186". I plan on drilling out a RCBS cutter to fit that size. Anybody got a better idea on how to get the Forster reamer to fit on a RCBS trimmer? Thanks.

RCBS and Forster are at the top of my list. If all American companies had service like them, I doubt there would be so much imported crap.

Now I just gotta drill out my RCBS cutter, nice and straight!
