The Lee Precision 90487 Bulge Buster eliminates case bulges in fired .45 ACP brass, restoring proper dimensions for reliable feeding and chambering. This specialized sizing tool addresses the common issue of Glock barrel bulges that standard resizing dies cannot correct.

What Makes This Different

Unlike conventional resizing dies that only address the case mouth and neck, the Bulge Buster applies sizing pressure to the entire case body where Glock-style barrels create characteristic bulges. The tool uses a unique collet system that gradually reduces case diameter back to SAAMI specifications. Standard dies leave these bulges untouched, causing feeding issues and potential safety concerns in tighter-chambered firearms.

Key Features

  • Eliminates Glock barrel bulges in .45 ACP cases for universal compatibility
  • Collet-style sizing system applies even pressure across entire case body
  • Works with standard reloading presses using 7/8-14 threading
  • Hardened steel construction withstands repeated high-pressure operations
  • Includes sizing collet, expander mandrel, and detailed instructions
  • Compatible with once-fired and multiple-reload brass cases
  • Restores cases to SAAMI minimum specifications for tight chambers
The Bulge Buster proves essential for reloaders who collect range brass or shoot .45 ACP through Glock pistols. Cases processed through this tool feed reliably in match-grade 1911s, tight-chambered competition pistols, and carbines that reject bulged brass. The sizing process adds minimal time to the reloading sequence while dramatically improving case life and feeding reliability across different firearms.
