Lee Precision, Inc. 0.458" Classic Bullet Sizing Kit

Overview

The Lee Classic Bullet Sizing Kit is designed to lubricate and size cast bullets to a uniform .458-inch diameter. The sizing die is compatible with any standard reloading press using 7/8-14 threaded dies. Bullets are pushed through the die nose-first, eliminating the need for special top punches, and gas checks are automatically seated and crimped in place during the process. This kit includes the sizing die and a plastic storage container that also serves as a catch bin for sized bullets. It requires the use of Lee Liquid Alox (sold separately) for lubrication. To use, bullets are coated with lubricant and dried, then pushed through the die. For rifle or high-pressure pistol loads, it is recommended to re-lube bullets after sizing to ensure uniform coating. Sizing helps improve accuracy by ensuring uniform bullet diameter and consistent start pressure, and is necessary if cast bullets are too large to chamber freely.
