So I have a set of dies, it is from Richard corbin. So when seating the core, do I use the normal seating core punch first or do I just use the hollowpoint punch? The instruction isn’t too clear on how to make the hollowpoints.

Save the hollow point punch for the point form die.

Best to contact Richard at RCE. Normally, his instructions are quite precise and he's always included printed pages of instructions with everything I've ever purchased from him...

You normally use a HP core seating punch to seat the core in the jacket. Then run it into your point form die. The point form die will create the shape of the bullet leaving the hollow cavity.
