I have had this Forster for years, and without issue. Not sure on the other's, but do know the Forster works for all three, trimming, turning and reaming of the necks. Otherwise, I would probably have a Wilson.
I haven't used 1680, so no help there,but think it's starting load is around 28 grains iirc (I would have that confirmed). I have used the 5744, for reduced cast loads. Someone once told me it's called "flamable dirt". I came to see his point and why. It shoots well however. I pretty much stay...

I can't imagine any in-house work done by them, would be any less.
A few more are stepping forward, stating they will leave the State's they are in. Beretta USA being one.
And in the other post I started, many firearms and related, are not selling to LE either, in states with GC being proposed. That's got to bite, if all were to boycott the States.
