    NOE Airgun Sizing Bushings

    I am pleased to announce that Al Nelson at NOE has made Body Sizing Bushings available in airgun cailbers for his Universal Push Through Sizing Die.... These are in addition to, and smaller than, the wide range of Powderburner Body Sizing Bushings he already has in the NOE Store.... The following sizes are available, in 0.001" increments....

    .22 cal Airgun - 0.216 to 0.223" .... http://noebulletmolds.com/NV/index.php?cPath=104_411
    .22 cal PB - 0.224 to 0.228"

    .25 cal Airgun - 0.249 to 0.256" ..... http://noebulletmolds.com/NV/index.php?cPath=104_412
    .25 cal PB - 0.257 to 0.260"

    .30 cal Airgun - 0.299 to 0.307" .... http://noebulletmolds.com/NV/index.php?cPath=104_413
    .30 cal PB - 0.308 to 0.316"

    These Sizing Bushings fit NOE's Universal Push Through Sizing Die.... http://noebulletmolds.com/NV/product...oducts_id=2415

    Using replaceable bushings is much less expensive that having to purchase the entire die each time, and allows you to have incremental sizes to obtain the best performance when using bullets in your gun.... without having to order and wait for expensive custom made sizing dies..... The die fits in any standard press, such as the inexpensive Lee, and if you already have a Lee base push-through pin (push rod) in the caliber you need, you can use that as well....

    Saving the best part to the last, NOE has a 20% off sale going this week.... Code # 02761812 ....

    Many thanks to Al for his continued support of the airgunning community, and bringing much needed products to market for us.... Happy 4th, Al !!!

    what is the difference between the airgun and powder burner caliber sizings? I mean, if you're using a barrel with a particular groove diameter and a bullet that needs sizing wouldn't either work in your opinion? However.... of course... but in reading further and looking into their bullets... I see your point on the airguns being sized smaller.... got it....

    Airgun .22 barrels are definately smaller than .224. Only old British guns were .220- now they are mostly made at 5.5mm. Best bet is to push a pellet a bit down the barrel and measure the skirt (not the head, which is normally smaller). A lot of airgun barrels are also choked so measure at both ends of the barrel.

    There is a lot of variation in .25s with Hatsan/Webley barrels being the largest and BSAs the smallest.
