It's list the molds but does not say what caliber
The first three digits of the mold number indicate nominal bullet diameter and, indirectly, caliber. e.g.
311xxx = 30 caliber
457xxx = 45 Rifle
287xxx = 7mm
429xxx = 44 handgun
etc

I think you'll find that a particular top punch will work with more than one caliber, as it's nose design specific rather than caliber specific.

This is great. Thank you. I don't have any use for them I'm thinking of selling them and I want to know what they are used for. I also have a Lyman 450 and several dies.
