I am getting ready to set up one of my 550 quick change heads to load some coated lead. I am either going to use the Missouri IDP #8 Hi-tek sized to .357, the Acme 135 RN or 145 RN. I am leaning towards the Missouri bullets because that is where i am going to order my 300 Blackout bullets from and I can spread the shipping over all the bullets.
This will be for general plinking and will most likely be loaded for subsonic suppressed use.
The quick change heads have 4 holes and the powder measure has to go in hole #2.
Since the case needs to be belled more for the lead/coated bullets, and I am going to guess this will happen at the powder drop, which expander do I need to use since I an going to guess the 9mm expander will not do it.
What dies do I want to use to do this with in stations 1, 3 and 4?
Any particular brand of dies? I don't to mix and match dies if I need to.
