Well, in less than two weeks I got Tom Post's excellent sizing die. What a beauty..........a work of art  I just need to get his prescribed bullet lube before I get serious using it. I did play a little and man those minute adjustments work perfectly. This is the "cats meow!" Thanks Tom for a great product and timely delivery. Richard |

I use the Lee alox stick. Just rub a little on the bullet. Works real well and readily available.

I was all set to order the Alox when I got a flyer from ENCO machine tools company and they happen to have the Castrol Stick WAX which Tom recommended, on sale for $9.95 for the 15 oz. tube plus I needed some other items from their catalog, so that is what I ordered Thanks for your suggestions.............Alox was also among Tom's suggestions.

Richard,
I agree with you as I just received my full form die from Tom in that it is a work of art. I am looking forward to trying out a number of .458 bullets.

12ptdroptine,
The Full form die is $183.00 and your barrel drop mailed to Tom in PA. Then you need a press I just got the RCBS Rockchucker from cabealas for like 129.00 and some bullets and bullet lube. A little experimentation and you are up and running.
