    Die insert

    Where can I find a round nose insert for my Lee dies, I'm loading 7.5x55 308 cast. The lee seating leaves a deep impression on the bullet.

    You can modify your existing one by molding a new interior
    of epoxy, like JB weld, with a boolit tip as the form. I have not
    done this personally, but it is often reported. I'd put a thin
    film of lube over the tip as a release agent.

    If it was easy, anybody could do it.
