Does anybody make custom lee style push through sizing dies for cast bullets? I need to size some .540 cast lead bullets to .538 ect. to get best fit in my Muzzleloader barrel..I have several "reloading" die presses. & don't really want to buy sizing press for such a small project.. Thanks much!

NOE makes a set for sizing. The bushings are available in just about any size you want.

Lee also makes custom sizes. I had one done for my muzzle loader. Not sure what wait time would be these days.

Just got 2 ordered from Lee,, thanks! (looking at the site, i believe what i ordered is larger than they will make as they list max size as .515 & i wanted .538, .539) & Lathesmith does not make them for Lee style..

What kind of muzzleloader do you have, Inline or Traditional. My two Muzzleloader a 50 and 54 Triditionals. I have a bullet starter for both. They fit over the end of the barrel and guide the bullet into the bore, a few thousands over was no problem and actually made for better accuracy.
