Elvis, I use Lyman #467. I don't know the RCBS top punch number if your partial to brand name. In fact I use #467 for all my pointy nose rifle boolits. On some designs the top punch will leave a ring, but not on the Lee C312-155...Ray

Elvis, any top punch will work using these methods:

1. Fill the punch cavity with JB Weld, lower the lever and the JB will form a perfect mold of the bullet nose.

2. My favorite is aluminum foil ... fold over some heavy grade foil into a small square, rub some lube on one side, press it into the punch cavilty, lower the sizer handle onto the bullet nose ... perfect mold of the nose.
