Long time Lurker and first post (at least on a long time) Have the Lee 457-500-f mold, it's a GC. Bought it for Griz loads as I live in MT and we have a bunch of them, but didn;t understand what I was getting in to with a GC mold at the time (Freakin Newbie!!). Not for hunting but for getting back from hunting, if needed.
I have been viewing various ways to seat them without investing close to $300 for a Lubrisizer (11 kids and no $$!) There are some great tips from other members for getting them on, but I am worried about crimping them with a sizer. The concern I have is that my barrel slugs .458 and the Lee sizer only comes in .457. Most all the posts indicate I want a bullet sized something like .001 over the barrel size for best results. I know other manufacturers make over-sized sizers, but we are back to cost again.
Any thoughts or reassurances?
Thanks in advance,
Greg
