I have a RCBS LAM and am just getting the necessary dies to start using it. First thing off is I bought a H&I 0.431 sizer die to be 0.001 above what my barrel slugged. I need to charge it with lube but since the sizer is in the garage it's too cold right now for that, so I can't try to size a boolit to see if it matters.The top punch I got with the MP 429244 mould does not fit into the die body, it mic's at 0.4478 dia. The 38 cal top pinches and the 45 cal top punches all go into the die bodies that I have for those calibers. I guess what I need to know is should the top punch go into the sizer die body?
Thanks,
Steve
