mtwain56 Posted June 5, 2021 Share Posted June 5, 2021 (edited) Trying to get a OAL under 1.130, and seat the bullet without flattening the the round tip. The dies I purchased were used so I don't know if the Seater plug insert is right for round nose bullets. Could it be for Flat Nose or Hollow Points? I'm using mixed brass, and Berry's 124 RN which are .356 in diameter. Edited June 5, 2021 by mtwain56 Added Seater plug Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jsjac Posted June 5, 2021 Share Posted June 5, 2021 Not sure on the RCBS dies but,the Dillon dies seater plug can be flipped over for a different shape bullets. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks, just checked Dillon web site and I see what your saying. Checked RCBS also. They don't say it specifically, but mention another seater plug could be needed. I'll call them on Monday.

Farmer Posted June 6, 2021 Share Posted June 6, 2021 Generally RCBS includes a round nose and a flat seating plug with their dies. Don’t know if that’s changed lately. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's great customer service! Yep, they're great. Owned an RCBS progressive for probably close to 30 years. I've not needed many parts for it over the years, but they were all free.
