I bought a new SW 629-6 last month. I bought a .430 sizing die for my Lyman 450 before I got the weapon. Didn't measure bore or throats and really don't care. With both Lyman 429421 and Lee 429-240-2R sized .430 it will make all six holes touch at 10 yds. Not a hint of lead in the cylinder or bore. My first S&W and I'm impressed.
I haven't shoot any cast out of it because at 433 and 428.5 im not sure what to size the projectiles at
.429 or .430 whichever you have. Either will work well.Originally Posted by idahojackie
Bought my first .44 Mag in 1957 and I have owned at least a dozen and a half and loaded for several more. I have never seen one that would not shoot .429 or .430 with great accuracy.
First reload: .22 Hornet. 1956.

Why get all worked up, before you know there is a problem??? I start looking for problems if I can't make the weapon shoot.
But everyone to their own...have fun and I hope you figure it out. I have had lots of pistols, S&W , and Ruger, never had to send one back....just lucky ????

How does it shoot now just like it is?
