Which top punches do I need?

[bassfishindoc]

Hey everybody, I am beginning my adventures into casting bullets and need a bit of help. I am starting out with the Lyman Mini-Mag Furnace Master Casting Kit which comes with the 4500 sizer/lubricator. I do not know which top punches I need because the Lyman and RCBS top punches correspond to their own bullet molds. I am purchasing the Lee 2-Cavity Bullet Mold C309-180-R 30 Caliber (309 Diameter) 180 Grain 1 Ogive Radius Gas Check and the Lee 2-Cavity Bullet Mold TL452-230-2R 45 ACP, 45 Auto Rim, 45 Colt (Long Colt) (452 Diameter) 230 Grain Tumble Lube 2 Ogive Radius. Any advice on which top punches I need to size and lube these would be helpful, thanks!

at the bottom of every page is a link to cast pics ...click on it and then scroll down the left side to top punches , to be fair the lyman mold reference pages also have top punch info as well

edit for add ... for the 230 45 acp boolit it should be #374

Thanks Fryboy, that had exactly what I needed!

I have decided to drop the Lee 30 cal mold as there is no top punch made for it and I don't want to purchase a separate Lee sizer die. I have opted instead for a Lyman 311291 based on recommendations from Rifle magazine. I'm still going to go with Lee for the 45 however. Can't wait to get started!
