I was using my Lyman #45 yesterday and started to change over to .476 for the first time and didn't have any top punches for the boolits. these are 325gr and 400gr FN boolits. The normal one i use for .451 boolts was not big enough. Since i was using LEE molds i thought, just email lee and see if they can make one from their custom shop. That way i'd have it from the people that made the mold. They emailed me back and said i need to send some boolits to lyman and have them make me a top punch. I expected more from Lee but I'm not sure why. They even post on their website they make custom molds, sizers, and top punches. Lyman had some top punches for 44 cal i thought might work and i almost ordered some for $10.96 + 6.00 shipping. but their website wouldn't let me order go through, the page wouldn't load. I next went to Accurate molds. They sell flat top punches in varous sizes for $2 each, that is not a typo $2, and change $3 for shipping. I was impressed someone still makes a good product and doesn't charge a redicouls amount for them. I bought 3, with shipping it cost me $9, just to show Lee and Lyman (in my own mind) i could get 3 better items for less that their price.
