Description

This is a vintage RCBS Lube-A-Matic bullet sizer and lubricator, a specialized bench-mounted tool essential for the ammunition reloading process. Manufactured by Rock City Ballistic Supply (RCBS) in the United States, the tool is constructed from heavy cast metal and finished in the company’s iconic textured green “crinkle” paint. The body features the RCBS brand name in raised cast lettering on one side, with the reverse side marked MADE IN USA and the casting or model code G-24-G. The apparatus utilizes a manual lever-action design with a mechanical linkage and a long steel operating handle. The handle terminates in a metallic-green, finger-grooved plastic or rubberized grip for ergonomic use. This tool was designed to simultaneously size cast lead bullets to the correct diameter and apply lubricant to the grease grooves. It represents a classic piece of American-made reloading hardware from the mid-to-late 20th century.
