Had a go at sizeing some boolits cast from a Mihec .45-270 mould today. The boolits were cast from ww/Pb about 60/40 ratio with about 2% tin added.
The bullets were water dropped.
The handle arm on the Star was flexing alot to the point where I thought something was gona give (and it wasn't gonna be Lathesmiths .452 die)
I know that if I put a lubricated boolt through the die, it will reduce effort, but I dont think it will reduce it enough.
I think I'm gona have to get a lee sizeing die and size first on the Rockchucker.
Any comments / suggestions welcome
