I bought my Star used, and it came with a .452" sizing die.
My question is on the sizing die itself. The lube holes in this die are extremely small. The outer view of the hole that allows the lube to flow looks the same as other dies. But, upon close examination, that hole is not drilled all the way through, the hole that is all of the way through is much smaller, the diameter of paper clip wire or less.
When I bought the machine, there were remnants of a very thin, almost like lithium grease, lube in the resevoir. I suspect the previous owner had the die made that way to limit flow of this thin lube.
I have not had a need to use the 452 die yet, but I am wondering if these small holes are going to impede flow of my normal 50/50 lube when the time comes. And if so, what do I do to correct this?
