Top Punch for Lee C312-155? 467 rounds the point.

[milrifle]

Every top punch list I've found lists the Lyman 467 top punch for use with the Lee C312-155, but it blunts the nose of the bullet. It doesn't seem to affect the flight too much but it sure makes measuring OAL a pain in the neck. I know I could make one on the lathe and use some JB Weld, but I was hoping to find one already made, if possible. Does anyone know of another top punch that might work better than the 467?

Thanks,

You could relieve the part that touches the point by drilling. That would leave the rest to grab the ogive of the boolit.

Thanks guys. PM sent.

The RCBS #554 top punch works great for me with the Lee 312-155. There is no visible damage to bullet nose.
