Need a nose punch for Lyman 225462

[bgokk]

Using a borrowed mold, Lyman 225462 I have cast about 1000 boolits. I now need a nose punch for a Lyman 4500 so that I can lube these.

I cannot find one which fits this RN boolit. I have hunted for a list which shows discontinued Lyman molds and top punches. No luck.

Any help will be appreciated.

Well this may or may not help. There is a member here that sells special top punches that are drilled out. You then use JB cold weld and use the bullet in your luber to create a custom, perfectly shaped top punch, and it was very nicely priced. But the guys name escapes me now.

Hopefully this post jogs someone's mammarys out there. (Giggidy)

I did another search and was referred back to Cast Boolits. This link, post 11. http://castboolits.gunloads.com/showthread.php?42779-lyman-225462 :drinks:

Thanks! I had compared the cast boolits to the bullet pic on Lyman's site and they did not look the same.
