I need to get a .432 size die for my RCBS lude-a-matic. The largest die I can find is a .431. How can I get a die this size.

Well, you could get a machinest to open up a .431 diameter to .432, but the dies are hard as a diamond...but it can be done.

What type of firearm are you needing this .432 diameter to shoot these big slugs. :confused:

I would think .432 would impose some diameter seating problems with your reloading dies, but maybe not.

I am casting for my 444 with micro-groove. .432 fits my bore the best. I have been using Beartooth bullets sized 432 with very good results. Purchured on of the Ranch Dog group buy molds to try making my own.

Our illustrious member Buckshot made me one and most likely would for you also.

Buffalo Arms do a .432 and a .433 custom sizer for the RCBS and Lyman.
39 bucks though plus postage.

Ordered a custom die from Buffalo Arms. If their product is as good as their customer service I will be very pleased. Ordered the die over the internet. They called me within an hour to explain the product and how long it will take to make the die. The dies are made to order. A company that cares enough to call and let you know whats up is good enough to pay a little extra for. Thanks mag44uk for the heads up on this company. :drinks:
