I guess I don't understand why the Force 12 ferrite balun wouldn't work with a tuner. I use my C-3Es on 12 and 17 both with the internal tuner and with my SB-220 at ~1000 watts out. For that matter, I run ferrite bead baluns that I built myself at the feedpoints of my 80-meter array. On 75, the SWR is ~3:1, but I haven't fried one yet... 73, Pete N4ZR Contesting is!
