    when I was using a lubrisizer i preferred a plain base because it was easier to keep lube off the base. Now that I PC everything, I prefer a BB because the melted powder has someplace to go which makes sizing- in a push-through sizer- easier.

    I have several H&G molds with both flat & bevel base. I personally prefer the bevel base, so please flood the market. I do not lube anymore, I switched to powder coating 6 years ago and the bevel base works better for me.

    BB more accurate with target loads in 45 acp. No BB on a 44 or 357 mag at full pressure.
