Lyman makes a universal heating plate that fits under the base of your sizer. It can take awhile, but it makes the lube flow much easier.

Is there a reason you cannot just simply Pan Lube your bullets? I have yet to see anyone offer you that option to date so I think I might be missing something along the way?

Lee should be able to provide you with the proper nose punch.

When did Lee start making nose punches?  Their sizing method is a push-through, pushed by the base, not nose.

J Louis, in his OP he specifically asked about using the RCBS press,otherwise I too would have chimed in with the suggestion to shoot as cast and pan lubed.  Of course I also like to use my Dell lube pump with its individually fitted bullet inserts best of all... this gives the best of both worlds, bullets as cast and less mess and more immediacy than pan lubing. I actually use all three techniques as appropriate.

Thanks Froggy he being new here I was not sure if he was aware of the pan lubing process and the only reason I brought it up.
