but it's better to be a teeny bit bigger than too small. I have several. Only thing is if you powder coat them it will add about 0.003" to the diameter. A trick is to use a 9mm mould and coat to use in .357/.38. The bump up is perfect. The .45's work fine.
The liquid alox tumble lube works fine too. It's a little messy if you are careless but dried it loads fine. Shooting it's a touch smoky but who cares. It will save you buying $300 H&I sizer kit for a while. LEE sells push-through sizer kits for about $30 that are fine.
Enjoy and jump on in.
