I'm having trouble finding a bullet sizer in 25acp for my Lee press.

Any ideas where I could look?

I'm getting the Ranch Dog TL255-50-RF from the group buy to use in my air rifle and will be needing one.


Thank you,

Todd

The most likely sources for a custom push through sizing die these days are some forum members(Buckshot is one off the top of my head I believe) or lap out a Lee .243" sizing die like I did. You need to be sure what size you need because it is real hard to shrink a sizing die, and a pain to buy a custom one only to need to lap it out bigger.

Shrinking a sizing die has got to be tough to do.

Thanks, I was wondering if that was going to be my best available option.

I do have a 8x14 lathe, but I'm still learning to use it. I shouldn't have any problem lapping the .243 to .250 to make it work for my application.
Shrinking may be beyond my skill level. Way beyond.. :)

Thank you again,

Todd
