I've just about got everything I need to start casing for my 45-70. The mold that I'll be starting off with is a Lee 457-405-F, flat nose. I'll be sizing them in a RCBS Lube-a-matic. I'm going to order a Lyman #457124 round nose mold as well. My question is, which top punch should I order to run these two types of bullets through the Lube-a-matic?
Thank you,
Eric

The Lyman 191 punch should work for the Lee Mold but the 457-124 requires a different punch, #374 IIRC; MidwayUSA has a chart that lists the punches required for the Lyman Molds, you can check just to make sure.

Glen,
Thank you, very helpful. I'll go look at Midways site.
