Redding competition seating die issues with Forster coax
Cartridge is 300 rum. I set it up how you’re supposed to and back off 1/2 turn from bottomed out. I then back micrometer all way out to seat the bullet and when I do it is jammed so far in the case seating near the o give. The only way I could fix this was to back the die out about 1/2”, and now the spring only has about 3/16” of engagement instead of almost at cam over. Does this matter? This doesn’t make sense to me as I haven’t had this problem in my other caliber with this die.
