I have a single cavity Lyman 454424 sitting around that I just don’t use. Why not hollow point it?
I wanted to try drilling the mould using the mill instead of the lathe. Turns out I like this method much more.
After learning not to fight the indicator by over adjusting things by cranking handles on the table I got it center per to within .0005 in both axis.
Drilled a hole .161 with plans to use a .163 rod. Rod can now be polished to a snug fit.
That is all I did tonight. Next up is making the pin.
