Can someone lead me to the correct top punch I need thru Midway for Lees .501 440gr GC mold?
I've looked and cant seem to locate it thru their catalog or website.
Thanks for the help.

Lee doesn't make top punches.

Get in contact with the perfessor, he makes a rather nifty universal type which allows you to customize for any boolit nose profile, and tools are not required to install or remove it. Very inexpensive, quality workmanship, and an extremely modest price which includes postage.

Too, there's a Lyman/RCBS to Lee top punch cross reference on Castpics, though they generally aren't exact matches and have a tendency to imprint rings on the nose.

Another options are to use a flat top punch, or turn down a bolt head to fit.
