It is the same one as for 308, collet number 1.
If you look up the collets on Natchez's site thy list what caliber each one works for, not sure if Forster's does.

The #1 collet does most everything: 0.379" (223 rem, 300blk, wildcats, etc), 0.473" (6.5x47, 308, all the 308 parent case cartridges such as 7-08, 243, 260, and about a hundred others), and 0.532" (all the rem mags, win mags, etc). I don't think they could make it much easier. Then all you need is the proper pilot, of which there are only so many from 17 to 338 for the common rifle cartridges. The Forster Original kit comes with 22, 24, 25, 27, 28 and 30 pilots and collets #1, #2, #3, #4 . I got a few of the 3-in-1 cutters for 22 and 30, and they make things pretty easy.
