I'm finally making the move from the Lee push through to a new lube/sizer. I think I have settled on RCBS. The confusion begins when I look for top punches for a few of the Lee molds I own.

1) C429-240-SWC

2) C309-170-F

3) C312-155-2R

Any reference help would be greatly appreciated!

Click on the Castpics icon at the bottom on the page, then click on reference or click on http://www.castpics.net/subsite/TopPunches/default.html

There is a pretty good list of top punches for the Lyman or the RCBS sizers. Hope this helps. /Rockchucker

And cheaper than the factory ones too.

Well it looks like I'll be talking to the Perfessor about my Lee C309-170-F...it is not on the list.

Is there a cross reference for LEE mold to Saeco top punches? Saeco's are threaded and a Lyman nor a RCBS top punch will not work in the Saeco.

I had ordered an RCBS one before I found out about his custom made ones. His are about half the price of the factory ones for my Lee 170F.

And Saecos are the same price.

I don't worry about matching anything up I just dump them out in a pile and find one that fits the boolit.

So find a Boolit that look close to same and buy that punch.
