Need some help understanding I shoot blackthorn 209 because of the regs in the states I hunt. I full form my bullets because I don't get the pressures the smokeless guys get so I use .458 bullets .I wont to try Kyles bullets but there all .452 and my understanding is you don't full form them is this correct ?

I full form 452 bullets with great success. Kyle’s bullets full form very well.
On my die the adjustment on 452 bullets is little to none. The die is not restricting much at all.

Check with Doug136 he shoots a lot of blackhorn and smooth sized bullets.

90 percent of the shooting I do is with Blackhorn 209. It is not necessary to full form Kyle's bullets. Not at all saying it is not a good idea I am just saying I can get very good accuracy without full forming . This is what I have found that works for myself .
If I want to shoot a light load 84 grains by weight I first undersize my bullets then knurl then size my bullets to fit my bore.
95 grains or more by weight then I just size my bullets to fit the bore. I tend to run my blackhorn loads /bullets with a tighter bullet fit.
Kyle's Accumax bullets are a little easier to get to shoot than Kyle's Aeromax bullets . Both bullets shoot extremely well. Also normally wads work well with Blackhorn.
If you have any trouble send me a pm . I primarily shoot Blackhorn I'm sure we can get your gun to shoot .

I might have misunderstood his post but it seems he already has a full form die and is asking if 452’s can be full formed.

You can get the 275gr Fury Star Tip in 458
But full forming 452 bullets will also work.
