A .490 RB run through a .459 sizer works great. I had to open the entrance to my sizer and prelube to get good results. I keep telling myself that I'm going to paper patch a few .45 pistol bullets and try them, but I haven't gotten to that yet.

The commonly available RBs are too small. I'd want a .460 to 463.
