Hi,
I have a Dillon 650xl. I am using the Dillon 3-die set and am loading 55gr FMJBT bullets. The problem I am having is that the bullet seating die isnt seating the bullet down far enough. The OAL of my cases is coming out to 2.265-2.270
I have the bullet seating die cranked all the way down till its almost smashing the shell plate, and the adjustment stem is also bottomed out. I even had to take the lock nut off it to get it to thread as far as it would go, yet my OAL is still too long.
Can you guys help me figure out what is wrong, or what I am doing wrong?
Thanks!
