much springback?
« on: February 25, 2004, 02:31:42 PM »
My water dropped wheel weights read 25 BHN on the lbt tester.  A pure lead ball pushed through my star sizer reads .451.  The hard bullets come out .452.  I'd like to try .453 bullets, think if I order a .452 diameter die the bullets will be .453?

All other things such as lead in taper being the same  -yes. However measure the bullets. You might try shooting them as cast. You can tumble lube them with Lee liquid Alox.
