Powdercoat them. It adds .002" to the diameter, then you can size the rest of the boolit back down in a push-thru sizer and the nose will still be bigger.

Now that's not a bad idea. Now a bunch more stuff to buy. By the way, I knurled the nose on a few and it looks like that might work as well especially if I lube the nose and can get them just a bit tight for a light push in fit.
Look into the Airsoft BB tumble coat powdercoating method.... you can start coating for cheap. The HF sprayer is the best and smoothest coat, but anybody can learn to use the Airsoft BB method and get pretty good results from it.

Ok, so my luck is running true to form. I just went to order a HF ES gun and some pc paint and it says they only send UPS ground and only to the lower 48. Is there some reason they can't send this stuff through the mail?
Rbuck351, they probably just don't want to stand in line at the post office. Conspiracy against us in the territories.
