help with top punch numbers?

[Carteach0]

I'd like to find the proper top punch number for two
LEE molds I use, a 429-240-2R 429 Diameter 240 Grain 2 Ogive Radius
and a C429-240-SWC 429 Diameter 240 Grain Semi-Wadcutter Gas Check.

Anyone know which ones I need, or can point me towards a way to
look them up?

Thanks!

For your 429-240-2R, the Lyman #251 works pretty good without marking the boolit too bad. You might try a Lyman #43 for your 429-240 SWC, I use it on the 429-255 SWC and it works well enough. YMMV. I too wish someone could come up with a reference to use for the Lee molds.

Hope this helps,

Rick

These websites have good information on Lyman bullet molds, top punches and other information. If you look at the pictures of Lyman bullets at the three peaks site you could probably find a shape close enough to then go to the dark canyon site and cross reference the appropriate top punch.
