I bought an old Lyman 45 Lube sizer. It came with a top punch 187. I googled it but could not find any info on it. It looks like it has to be for a 45 cal or so with a round nose. Anybody got any info on it or any idea what molds it went to. I figure they are long discontinued. Thanks.

Top Punch #187 fits Lyman moulds #439186, #446187, and #451113.

PB

All are round nose rifle boolits from various weights from 305 grains to 405 grains #451113 seems to be for a 45-70 . The other two are for some large 44 cal. round , probably black powder class also.
