This special set was made to produce a hollow ogive .217 (22) smooth slug with a cup base in the popular 2-S ogive shape. It is purpose built just for the FX style hollow ogives and is not designed with a bleed hole in the point forming die. The weight adjustment is done in the preforming core swage die. Since it was a special run there are no other calibers or shape options. You can add additional base punches for hollow, flat, dish or RBT bases, however.
IF you only want to make the hollow ogive slugs, this set will save you $170 compared to getting the more versatile PFHP-2SP set (which uses a PF-1-SP bleed hole slug-making die for producing solid ogive bullets by itself).
The point form die looks just like a PF-1-SP except for the lack of a bleed hole, which is useless in making the hollow ogive slugs. (If you tried to sxtrude lead after forming the hollow ogive cavity in the 1st die, the slug would simply collapse on itself.)
Cut a piece of lead wire and swage it to the desired weight in the CSW-1-S core swage die, forming the large cavity in one end. Then put this pre-adjusted core into the PF-1-SL die and gently roll the walls inward to make the ogive or nose curve. Do not press it so far that you mash the hollow ogive. Very little pressure is needed.
Since this was a special run at a discounted price, there are no optional diameters or shapes. The set is a 2-S ogive, .217 caliber, cup base design. You can add other optional base punches if you wish, however.
Use lead wire of .210 diameter, or a .210 core mold. These are available as optional add-on items to make a complete kit (along with the CSP-1 S-press in which these dies operate).
