[QUOTE="Bart B, post: 1819765, member: 5302"] Every tour I've had at both of Sierra's plants showed each bullet making machine's set of dies had it's own lot number that stayed with those bullets through testing, cleaning, inspection and packaging. If a die needed adjusted or replaced, or a new lot of jacket metal or lead cores, a new lot number was assigned to subsequent bullets. I doubt they ever had more than one machine (set of dies) making a given bullet at the same time. Only rejects sold as seconds in the plant's store sometimes had mixed production lots. [/QUOTE]
