    LBT nose punch, .45 caliber

    Can anyone recommend a nose punch for seating this bullet? It’s a 230 grain LBT WFN type, from Montana Bullet Works. I have contacted them, too, but thought I’d check here. I’m using Dillon dies, but I’m open to suggestions.

    The insert in the Dillon die is reversible for either round nose or semiwadcutter boolits. If the semiwadcutter portion won't work you could fill it with hot melt glue and make a custom seater for that boolit or fill it completely and sand it off so it is completely flat.
    Some times it's the pot,
    Some times it's the pan,
    It might even be the skillet,
    But, most of the time, it's the cook.

    Thanks for the tip. I may have to do that.
