Stupid question time.
I have an original Vickerman seating die for .243/6mm. I am trying to load Hornady a 75 grain V-max in .243 Winchester cases.
The problem is if I set it for the correct OAL, I can't get the projectile to fit in the window. If I leave it about .140" long it works slicker than calf slobbers.
The previous owner had a 6mm Donaldson Wasp, I know because I got the dies for it in the big box at the estate auction.
Did they make different length dies, or do I just need to play around with the settings more?
I can see how the Vickerman die could be a great improvement over a regular seating die, but not if I have to run each cartridge though it twice.
Thanks for any help,
Robert
