    Top Punch ? or custom?

    Using a Lyman Lubrisizer. Notice that my TP for Mihec 380 boolits as a pin that goes in Hp and helps alignment really well. On my Mihec 230gr .454 Mould, I have a hard time aligning the boolit in the sizing die. I know about the JB Weld trick but would prefer a TP with a pin to go in the HP to help with alignment.
    anyone know of a TP already made or who is willing to work with me to make one?

    Thanks
    Roger

    That should be easy enough. All you need is a pin fabricated to match the HP, drill for a press fit in the top punch, and put 'er together. PM me if you would like to get something made up.
