Which resizing die.
« on: December 13, 2007, 12:15:44 AM »
I am totally new to casting bullets but am learning the hard way. I have made several boxes of .40 S&W bullets. In my nievity I had imagined that the cast bullet would fit the brass case with little or no bother, in fact the case is well bulged on one side. The cast bullets are .404 or so and sometimes a little more.
I am going to buy a Lee resizing kit and looking at the Lee catalogue it seems that the .401 {90060} die is the one I need. Would you guys concur on that. The reloaded round are to used in a Glock 22. I will post this now and can post a photo of the rounds if needed.

Yep, thats the one to try. I don't load/cast for the 40 but the Lee sizing dies have worked well for me.

I read somewhere that glocks have a different rifling then other guns and don't like lead.  In fact this article says
NEVER NEVER NEVER use lead bullets in a factory Glock barrel.
