sizing for 454 casull
« on: July 31, 2006, 11:19:05 PM »
The cylinder throat on my 454 BFR will allow a bullet sized to 451 to drop through but, 452 does not.  My inclination is to go with the 452.  Thoughts?

Try both, the .452 first.  When I was casting with linotype, I had to use a .451 siziing die to get .452 bullets because of the tiny bit of rebound with that alloy.  Likely the .452 will serve you best.
