Source of custom sizing dies

[inthebeech]

I am wondering if a die exists, or can someone make one, that screws in my regular reloading press and simply swages down as-cast bullets (no GC) that get tumble lubed either before or after this step. Lee I know makes something but since I would be needing a custom size diameter (.433), I am looking at a custom piece of equipment anyway. Lee can make me exactly what I am looking for. I am just wondering if there are any other options and frankly am interested in your input on the idea itself. There doesn't appear to be much of a market for sizing dies for folks who want to use their press BECAUSE they are tumble lubricating and don't need a sizer-lubricator.
When the new mold comes, I am hoping of course that I can shoot as cast; this idea is my back up should the diameter need to be reduced a bit and I'd rather not do it through altering the bullet alloy or other means.
Thanks all,
Ed

Lee is probably your best bet, but you might persuade Buckshot to make you one.

I'm just guessing on the last one.

You may also want to consider Smokemjoe for the work/die you want to have done.

You can open up a LEE .429 die by rolling it back and forth on your thigh with a dowel wrapped with fine wet or dry sand paper and some oil. Go slowly and check often. Do you have a micrometer?

I recommend Buckshot. He's made a couple of those same type of push-through dies for me and I recommend the quality control and the speed of delivery as well the total cost. If I need another push-through die, I know I will send him a note quicker than I would LEE's custom shop.

Lee will take more time in most cases vs Buckshot, a forum member here and doing it yourself by honing out a .429 or .430 die will be your fastest means if you are comfortable modifying a die. I've never had a Smokemjoe die so can't comment on his work.

I've honed out several dies myself these days.

Rick (Buckshot) would be my first choice. He's done a lot of work for me, all of it good quality.

Ranch Dog has them, made by lee to RD specs. .432. I just traded one away, along with a RD oversize mold.
