    I use the SAECO #305, which looks like a fat 311041, it casts out to .314". Paper patched up to .325". It's a slip fit in a fired case and shoots incredibly well in my old Marlin.

    It wouldn't be any problem to make a sizer for those but you'd have to have a press with the removable bushing like an RCBS since the bullet is as big as the normal die threads. Just make it like a...
