    (minor) Stroke of Genius...

    I was leementing the need to feed my bullets backward for another reason, at the time, in my lee sizer, and it dawned on me that I might be able to use my 9mm seater punch. the seater punch is the same length as the seating punch for my sizing die plus a little for the ogiee hollow. But, the base/head of the seater punch doesn't fit the ram. BUT, it does fit a lee#1 shell holder!!! So I rigged it all up and it worked (almost) perfectly. You just have to make sure the punch stays in place on the shell holder. No more deformed noses when applying PB gas checks on my 9mm/.357 boolits...

    I hope this is helpful to some of you.
