Does NOE not make a round nose punch? I've been looking on their website and all I found are flat nose punches. Am I looking in the wrong place, or what. I'm in the middle of placing an order and can't find the last item I need, and that's a round nose punch.

when you order the mold usually in the list (at top) is a punch for that particular design(RN,FN,PTD...The pictures are a generic top punch that shows a flat.Hope this helps.

I'm just trying to find a round nose punch in .284 caliber for an existing mold that I own. 

Thanks,

To me they are all are pretty much custom fit to the bullet.  What I usually do is find one (or 2 or 3) that looks close and then use JB Weld to make it fit the nose of the bullet I'm working with.  Good luck, Bill.

Hello Wm Cook,

That is exactly what I'm going to do. I ordered a nose punch from NOE a few minutes ago and will do the JB Weld treatment. I keep putting off, getting on the lathe and making some punches to custom fit some of my bullets, but I was laid up for 8 months a couldn't even walk, let alone get to the shop and work. I'm hobbling around well enough now, that maybe, I can get that done before too long

I appreciate your reply and help greatly.

Mashburn.
