Does anyone make an adaptor for the Star that will accept standard Lyman or RCBS top punches?
I'd like to size some boolits base first so I can more easily attach a gas check.

You might ask Lathesmith if he can make you one. It would be a matter of drilling a hole in an existing Star top punch that would accept the shank of the Lyman/RCBS top punch and drilling for a small set screw to hold it in place. Really pretty simple on a lathe, once you have the properly threaded Star top punch.
Hope this helps.

I think it is simpler and less trouble just to go nose down.
I guess I should read the whole post before I put my foot in it.
