So I am a long time Lee die user until recently when I bought a former commercial loading company's remaining inventory in Florida and walked away with dies of every make and dillon reloading presses galore.
In the mix is a M die for 30 cal, 223, 38/357, 44 mag, 45 acp, 9mm.
I sat down and screwed the m die body until it almost touched the shell plate of my dillon rl1000 and proceeded to screw the stem in until it stopped on the case mouth. I proceeded to gradually turn the stem until I was able to set a bullet on top of the case and it slide into the case squarely with minimal force.
How does this set up compare to yours as users of such dies?
I am very pleased as this die let's me seat a bullet and not worry about if I set it on straight.
