    Top punch substitution

    I have two different molds for my 41 Magnum, a Lyman 410610 and an RCBS 41-210, both throwing SWCs. The Lyman requires a 610 top punch that appears to be rare. The only one I found on FleaBay was a special order that was selling for $30. I have the 420 punch for the RCBS mold, can I use this top punch (or a 38 wadcutter top punch) to lubricate and seat has checks on the Lyman 410610?

    Thanks in advance for your advice.

    Just about any flat top punch should work. I bought a set of flat punches from Accurate, they suit the vast majority of my needs as most of my boolits are FN profiles.
