[QUOTE="Broz, post: 498470, member: 7503"] Bigsal, I have been there. Before I got my new press my seating depth was determined by the amout of pressure and how hard I hit the bottom of the stroke on the press and o-give measurements were different. After I got my T-7 and talked to Redding they told me with the comp. bushing dies I was to adjust the die to a slight cam over of the handle as the die contacts the shell holder. This process has put a reference point for the shell holder to stop at and all ammo is dead nuts the same length. I am not sure what you have for dies or a press as I didn't read the entire thread. Some dies will not allow you to set them to contact the shell holder and will bottom out on the neck of the brass. But if you are using redding bushing dies this is what I would do. One more reason I like my redding dies. Now as long as I set them to cam over I know my die depth is always repeated to the same depth. Hope this helps you, Jeff [/QUOTE]
