    .225 Sprue Plate hole size

    while asking about a 50 gn .225 mold GB, I asked what size holes will the SP's have for this mold. In return I was asked what I thought they should be ??
    I gave my openion that I would like 3/32 or .0932" dia. holes and that they could always be opened up to 7/64 or .1094

    I made a pair of sprue plates for my Lyman .22 moulds and used a 2mm 0.078 inch drill. Works brilliantly.
