Thormolds, anyone swaging with them?

The NOE should do you well then. You may find that going slightly smaller than .305 will work the best. Take a .304 and carefully polish it up to .3045

Thanks again for the idea of resizing. Now if I do get another press I know exactly what size I'll need to order the die made in.

And for the record. The heavy flashing on the slugs turned me away, not resizing. I could live with that part.

I saw in one of your comments you said the punch and die were different sizes which caused the flashing. That sucks, fortunately I don't have a problem with that. I just cut my blanks 2gn heavier than the slug and no problem with flashing. Initially my blanks were four or five grains heavier than the slug I was making and I did have some flashing

That's definitely a plus for you when resizing. Bases have to be square.
