I like traditional lubed bullets and it's fun when

all goes well. Alas, it seems I'm doing goofy things. I needed a .510" bullet sized and lubed. They dropped from the mould at 0.515". But the only sizer available stock from Lyman was a .512" that was exactly 0.002" too large.

So I attached checks and sized through the Lee .510" die then ran through the .512" Lyman and just lubed them. Extra work but got it done.

Normal bullets are fine. The .457, .45, .44, 38, .32 all run perfectly. .401 are fine too using the normal plain base 170 gr. SWC. But doing too much too fast, and with a concave base, things go sideways fast without enough finesse. I've been a little short on that lately, finesse.
