Dillon seating dies reversible pin

[MoreIsLess]

I just bought a Dillon 45acp 3 die set after using Lee since I got my press (550b). How do you tell which end of the pin is for the round nose and which end of the pin is for semi wadcutters.

Also, I have lead flat point bullets but they are not semi wadcutters nor are they round nose) so which end of the pin would I use, I assume the semi wadcutter end since SWC's have a flat nose.

Take a look at the ends of the pin. 1 end is round and the other is flat. Which ever fit’s the point of the bullet best is the one you use.

MIL: You want to use the flat seating die stem with flat point, truncated cone, SWC, or hollow point bullet profiles.
