nose first mod Saeco sizer

Thinking that nose first sizing has several advantages over base first, I ordered a Lee nose first die set. After using it, I was dissatisfied with the incomplete seating of the gas check.              I have two Saeco sizers here and after reading that several shooters use other than Saeco's to size nose first, this is what I came up with to convert one of my Saeco's to a nose first push through sizer . This conversion adds a couple more steps to the loading process but I really don't care because being a target shooter, my one goal in life is the continual  pursuit  of  that ragged hole.             All I did was to remove the bottom seating depth stop affair from one of the Saeco's and then turn a replacement push pin ,from a length of CR 15/16' rod, that is 2.095” long.  Threaded the top so that it screws in where the regular nose punch goes. Then drilled another quarter inch hole in the handle further back towards the end for the pivot pin, in order to get enough travel. Some leverage is lost this way but not enough to make a difference. The diameter of the new push pin is just a fine slip fit in the intended .310" sizing die.           I use the hard Gator checks and first run the bullet base first into a .311” die just far enough to seat and clamp the check on the bullet in one Saeco. Then place the bullet nose first in the  modified sizer and push it through. The checks are now seated fully with perfectly flat square bases. And no nose distortion.
