I set it up where I pointed the bullet to deformity the profile of the bullet, then backed off the pointing die until that no longer happened. Then I trimmed to get rid of any bur that was on the tip from pointing.
Sorry I didn't make myself clear. The first step in your process before pointing is the initial trim....how much are you trimming off the tip before pointing?
@quest450 I trim off just enough to have a uniform appearance with the tip of the hollow point. I look for the same thickness of jacketing around the opening of the hollow point. I try to remove as little as possible to achieve this.
Good afternoon friend, greetings from Spain, congratulations on your videos. One question, I bought that same one (bullet pointing die) now I need the B-20 punch for Berger 200.20x cal30 tips, and I can't find where to buy it and have it sent to Spain 😓 Do you know where I could buy it? Thanks for your time . David
I happen to enjoy shooting there. The owner is a great guy and he runs a great rifle range! I am sure that there are plenty of other ranges that accommodate larger cartridges. Thanks for watching.

I was told by Tech support at Berger that you should press the point first and then trim.
I will most definitely take that into consideration.
Well done, I think your process makes sense, and avoids the distortion issue.
@@howdyduty8890 thanks for watching!
good work Matt, thank you
how much are you trimming off the tip to "square" if off before you point the bullet ?

@@mattsreloadingbench Hello, I wrote to them but they don't respond, and on the page it says that they don't even make international shipments.
@@2012xtrem sorry bud, I don't know any other avenue to help you out
@@mattsreloadingbench Nothing friend, thank you very much for everything anyway 👍
A mile long range that doesn't allow for calibers over .30 cal/300 win mag? what a joke.
