RCBS Lube-A-Matic Top Punch .609

The RCBS Lube-A-Matic Top Punch .609 (RCBS part no. 85609) is a single replacement top punch built for the RCBS Lube-A-Matic and Lube-A-Matic-2 press-mounted lubricator-sizers. Casters use a top punch to hold each cast bullet nose-first in the sizing die while lube is applied and the bullet is pushed through to final diameter, and the punch face has to match that bullet’s profile closely enough to seat it square without marring the nose. This punch is numbered .609 to identify the specific bullet profile RCBS engineers it to fit, so if your mould calls for the .609 punch you can add it to your bench without buying a whole new set. It threads into the ram like every other RCBS top punch and is sold individually, making it easy to round out a punch collection one number at a time as your bullet lineup grows.

Key Specifications

• The .609 punch face is machined to match the bullet profile RCBS assigns to that number, so the nose seats square instead of tipping in the die.
• It is built to run in the RCBS Lube-A-Matic and Lube-A-Matic-2 lubricator-sizers, the two presses RCBS designs its top punch line around.
• This listing is for one individual top punch, not a multi-number set, so you can add exactly the number your mould calls for.
• The punch threads directly into the ram, the same mounting RCBS uses across its whole top punch lineup, so no adapter is needed.
• Like the rest of the Lube-A-Matic system, it is designed for cast lead and coated bullets, not jacketed projectiles.
• At roughly 0.04 lb shipping weight, it adds almost no bulk to a bench already loaded with dies, shell holders, and lube.
