This is lead bullet swage with bleed holes, flat base, 1-E ogive, and a melat (width across the tip) of 0.200 inch. It operates in the Corbin S-press. One stroke adjusts the weight precisely, forms a perfect tip, base, and diameter so you eject a finished, ready to shoot bullet (or ready to use in a sabot or with paper patch, if desired).
This is regularly a $559 PF-1-SC custom die due to the special size and shape, but we are offering it as a standard weight-adjusting, pressure sealed ejector point form die. There is only one at this price! The synchronization length (marked on the punch and die) is 2.006 inches. That gives the precise length for the ejector so it reaches exactly to the end of the cavity and seals off the tip or meplat under high pressure, allowing the bullet to fill the cavity, form the base and tip, and have plenty of pressure to flow surplus lead from bleed holes to adjust the weight.
The die has been calibrated with two precise diameter, venturi-like dual size bleed holes for use with soft lead (Bhn 5-6) which is ideal for expansion, carrying more energy per unit of volume than lighter alloys. Used with Teflon Tape pipe wrap, or thin paper patch, this could be fired in a .458 to .460 diameter muzzle or breech loading rifle. With a sabot it could be fired in a 50 caliber muzzle loader. Take your pick! But do it soon, since these are not kept in stock and when sold, will need to be made as a custom die.
