Things are easy sometimes, and not so easy at other times. Here is why. I have been casting a big bunch of Snakebite bullets. They are a special designed trunicated sort of type, but rounded with flat point type .358 dia bullet. I have some Lee sizer/lubers, but they only work well with liquid alox of pan lubed bullets. I also have a Saeco luber/sizer and I had to get a sizing die and top punch for the Snakebites. Hmmmm, nowhere could I find a nose profile like I needed. I looked in Saeco and RCBS and any catalog that had dies that would fit Saeco. I finally had to order one, I thought might work for a round nose and had a friend chuck it up in a lathe and cut the very end of the top punch to match the profile of the Snakebite. I was pleased as punch (pun intended) that even though cold and unheated I could lube that big ol' honkin' lube groove with my own mix of a sort of Felix lube I use, since I only shoot BP. Works like a charm and my bullets are coming out perfectly. Sometimes, invention is the mother of necessity, or some such saying, still even today in this modern day and age :-)
