Seater die troubles...

Post by Mike »

I've got a Redding Competition seater die and can't seem to get it to set loads deep enough to work in an AR magazine. The die is set as deep as I can get it (slightly below "0"), but that still isn't deep enough. Is there something that I'm missing that would make this die work? Anyone use something else that seats deeper and works with AR magazines?

I have the same die. It works fine right out of the box. I load at COAL of 2.27 to fit my R-15. I know you can reset the 0 on it. Have you tried that? I will take a good look at mine, if i find anything that will help i will re-post. Sorry for your trouble. Hopefully it's something simple.

Thanks for the feedback, Joker. I haven't tried to reset the "0" yet. I'll try to figure that out next.
