    .338 Win Mag boolit sizing question

    Hello All,

    I recently acquired a C338-220-1R Double Cavity Mold and am excited to begin casting with it as I have never casted for the. 338 Win Mag before. However, I am unsure of the correct way to proceed in regards to sizing the boolits. I use a Lee sizing die for my 30-06 boolits, but the only die I saw avaliable from them was for .339 diameter. Would this be a viable option for sizing, or am I way off? The other thing I noticed is that there are luber sizer dies for .338, but I am not sure if I want to invest in a luber sizer at the moment, although I would buy one if it was my only option for sizing to the proper diameter. Any advice/feedback would be greatly appreciated.

    Thank you

    I use the lyman .338 sizer with that mold because that is what I have. It works fine for me. The Lee 339 should be ok for you.
