    The only dies I have ever gotten from Chris are the short ones. I don’t want the next bullet to push out the previous one because it puts a small dimple on the round nose bullets.

    I have several of Chris’s dies. The 9mm one probably has sized somewhere around 900,000 bullets. Bullets still come out at the proper size.

    The Lee APP works with the NOE bushings but only for sizing and not lubing the bullets.

    I cast a 215 grain 300 blackout using the magma bullet masters. We had more problems getting the sizing machine setup so the bullet would not get bent than we did with the actual casting.

    Accurate molds is another place to get blanks. I don’t think aluminum would hold up very good on a master caster.

    I enjoy casting better than reloading. I own a commercial casting business but I really enjoy breaking out my 5 hole molds and making my own bullets.

    If they are 124 grain no groove round nose coated that most of the commercial guys sell you will need to seat them at 1.10 or so. Make sure you do a plunk test before you make too many.
