Bump/body die?

[DukeDuke]

I'm looking at the Forster Bushing Bump Sizing Die and wonder if it only bumps the shoulder, or sizes the case all the way down?
I see according to Redding their body die sizes the case all the way.

Thanks!

You are correct in that the Forster bump die does not size the case body. The Redding body die sizes only the case body. The two together would be complementary, if that is what you are thinking. They could both bump the shoulder, if desired.

If your looking at the bushing bump die keep this in mind.I just bought one for my 30wsm and 2-bushings .333 and .334,I use a redding ti-bushing .333 and it works great, the forster bushings are steel and don't size the neck enough to hold a bullet,so take it for what its worth,maybe buy bushings smaller than you normally use.

The Redding bushings are also made of steel. They're TiN coated.
If you want a bump/body/bushing neck die, send a case that has been fired at least 3X to Harrell's Precision and they'll make you a die for your chamber.

Forrister will custom hone a neck to any dimension that you want on a full leanth die. This gives the best of both worlds,full leanth size, bump the shoulder and not overwork the neck)but no option to experment with different neck tension.
