True up your cast and paper patched bullets

RE: True up your cast and paper patched bullets
Bear in mind that greasers that have a bore riding nose have most of the bullets' bearing surface IN FRONT of the driving bands due to the upsettage of the bullet when fired, and you can only size the driving bands. You can't do anything about the majority of the bullet in front of the driving bands, and if the bullet is out of round, the nose is going to stay that way, sizing die or not.

Having said that, I have a set of the Lee push through dies, and they work great. They really true up a paper patched bullet. Shoot straight, rdnck.
