Have one of these moulds that I will start casting with shortly but can not find out what the proper Lyman Top Punch is... Anyone have any idea where to look?

This is an interesting article I found while looking for the top punch...

Does anyone know what mould Leadhead Bulets uses for their 230 Keith... I really like the bullet and it shoots great but the wide driving band sometimes will not fit in some of my guns...

Thanks...Bob

Not sure, but try the Lyman #429.
I'll check back later with a more definate answer.

Since your bullet has a nice " flat " on the end of the nose, any top
punch that is the size of the meplat that is totally flat will
work and an added bonus is it won't make marks on the nose.

I keep a flat nose punch for 357 bullets and the same works on
a 41, 44 , or 45 cast bullets that has a " flat " on the end of the bullet.

On flatpoint bullets I use a top punch that is flat.
I tried one with a profile similar and it left a ring on the boolit.

Thanks... I had an order to Midway going in so I ordered the one for the RCBS 210 SWC...I can always alter it if it leaves rings...

Thanks...Bob
