Got a old blue star. Read alot here about them made 50%Beeswax 50% Molly Grease lube. Had lathesmith make dies and top punches.Wow what a great output this has. alittle bit to set up and get the feel of but for anyone who is thinking of any other brand don't bother save up and get this one.magma engineering still makes these and will provide parts and tec support but check here first for parts.Lathesmith will make bullet specific dies just send him good cast samples (properly filled out and slightly larger than final sized diameter) and have a pile of bullets fast. My two are lee .452 160 gr and 255 gr flat nose. The above is my personal thoughts on the star and its use. Lathesmith makes very high quality parts.
