    Have both .451 and .452 sizing dies. Advice in old Lyman books was size to bore diameter so started at .451. Worked fine and no leading issues, casting with straight range scrap. Curious so miked the bullets and they were coming out at .4517. After 20-25K rounds figure if its working why worry.

    Greetings
    0.452 is what comes out of my Star sizer and the product has never failed to load in any of mine or my friends 1911’s. It works for me.
