[QUOTE="acloco, post: 357166, member: 6137"] Ran into this as well with several flavors of bullets - both plastic tipped and hpbt's. Ended up drilling the bullet seating stem to allow NO contact with the tip. On one occasion, I also ended up lapping the bullet seating stem with a bullet....to match the ogive. Otherwise, I ended up with a ring around the ogive of the bullet. As Varmint Hunter stated, powder column could be the issue as well. A drop tube or longer drop tube can help as well. [/QUOTE]
