    I could use a...

    30 caliber rn top punch for an RCBS lubrisizer. I can trade a .45 Cal. Swc top punch or a Lee .429 push through sizer.

    What # of top punch do you need? I will look and see what I have.

    tom. clean one of your 30 cal punches, lube the tip of the boolit, fill the end of the punch with hot melt glue and stick the boolit tip in it.
    when the glue hardens, carve off the excess.
    guaranteed not to mar the boolit tip.
    I've done this for years, there are even people that sell "blank" top punches.

    I don't have any rcbs top punches to copy , but if you can find dimensions I can make a blank or two for you to do the jb-weld mold trick .

    I do not have a listing for that mold , just use a larger punch and the hot melt glue trick , it works .
