Bought this Hornady New Dimension Custom Guide Dies at Cabelas Saturday. I was specifically looking for just a Taper Crimp Seating Die. No one seems to sell them separate, so I ask the salesman "is that a taper crimp/seating die, or just a seating die", and he replied that it was in deed what I wanted. Could not get this thing adjusted for anything. Bullets didn't feel like a taper crimp and not a one would go all the way into my case gauge. Called Hornady explained, and he asked me what the set # was on the box! and told him it was 546515, and he told me that's why. Said that number set was a roll crimp/seat die., and that I needed set #546516.
Well I look up a lot of pictures that look like mine, and some say taper crimp/seat die, then look at the picture of the one that is listed on Midway USA, and it's totally different. That one has two adjusting sections, and mine just has the seating adjustment I have seen other pic on the net for both ways.

The pic of box on bench are the ones that I have, the other pic is off the net when I searched Hornady 546516..
