    .45 acp Pan Lube boolit punch???

    Hey guys.
    I need some input. I have been playing with Pan lubing my cast.
    I tried the knock em out approach. That did not work well for me.

    I have found a usable procedure for my .358 boolits.




    This is giving me nice clean boolits and they shoot great.

    Need Ideas for a punch for my .45's

    a 45-70 shell , or closer a fired 45 colt ( 460 454 etc ) but those have small rims , if you drill the same size as the boolit thru the head it will push them up and out as you continue to cut them out of the cake

    Thanks Guys I appreciate the info.
    WaxMeister sounds like the tool to have.
