My Lee .50 Modern Minnie(365 grn) is .502". This is not a minnie, is it? A minnie is supposed to be 1 or 2 calibers smaller than the barrel caliber, isn't it? I can't even "hammer" it down my barrel without ruining the bullets nose. My bore is .500 on the dot. Is there a bullet sizing die I can purchase that will size my minnies to be actual minnies? Forget asking Lee, they told me the size of my bullets are with-in QC tolerances, no help from them. As far as commercial bullets (Great plains, Maxi-ball, Buffalo Ball-ets, etc), they fit and shoot very well. It's just my own lead pills that don't fit.
