I found the Lyman top punch chart but not one for RCBS. Anyone know the Top Punch # for the RCBS 130 grain 7.62X39 boolit? It's a real pointy thing, more so than the Lyman 311359.

Newtire - If you have an existing spitzer punch, do this:
Fold some heavy aluminum foil into a square. Set it on top of the nose and push it into the punch cavity. The foil will form an exact image of the bullet nose

That was fast! Will give it a try tomorrow night.

Newtire....That takes a #554 RCBS. I've used a Lyman #359 and it works pretty well./beagle

Thanks you guys,

I snooped around on Midway's site and found an RCBS chart that lists them all. Now to figure out how to post it to CastPics..
