Now that i"ve gotten my feet wet I'd like to get my "lead-burned" hands on a good mold and sizer (like the Lee sizer dies) for my Swede. I think molds are readily available, but I know lee does not make a sizer.

Where can I get one.

Also, what size Gas checks do i use?


Thanks!

Molds are made by all the major makers. You will need 6.5 gas checks.
You can buy the Lee .243 push thru sizer then have buckshot open it up or he can make you one from scratch.

Or you can order a sizer at .266 or .268 or whatever you want from Lee. I'm sure Buckshot does it better, but in case he doesn't want to...

Your timing is bad. Less than a month ago I sold a Lee sizer in .266, half a box of gas checks and an RCBS 6.5-140-FN mold to someone on the forum here. He really wasn't looking for the sizer, perhaps he would sell it to you.

If I'm not mistaken Lee has been making sizers for some of the smaller rifle calibers and I think they make a .285.

Yup they do!
