Running bullets through the Lubri-sizer

[Gibbs44]

The first time I ran bullets though my Lyman 4500 Lubri-sizer, which was the last time I had any bullets to push through it, I cast them and then ended up waiting a couple of weeks to run them through, just as a lack of time. I just had time to cast some more today. About how long should I wait to size them? Does it even matter other than giving them enough time to set, about 24 hours.

Appreciate the help.

It matters only if you're going for match grade hardness. Otherwise, you can size them anytime. I have sized them immediately, and I've waited until it was convenient. I like to do it sooner when they aren't quite as hard.

In rifle loads, it only matters slightly more. In competition, it could be important.

Good Luck,
Ron

Definitely not competition. Just good old fun shooting.
