I picked up some 45lc 270 grain LSWC Keith style bullets, they measure.454 and are made from wheel weight lead, should I buy a swaging die to resize to .452 or will it fire just fine like it is. I could not push the bullet through the cylinder with some force, I stopped before I goofed up cylinder. Also I could not find load date for this bullet, anybody have some safe load data for it, for uberti revolver

They will need to be sized. That bullet is going to be on heavy side for uberti and colt single actions in my opinion.
 
No I have not slugged barrel yet. I was afraid they would be too heavy, I didn’t pay too much for them at least.
