[QUOTE="Pdyson, post: 2951583, member: 74061"] Hornady seaters have several seating stem choices to choose from. I used JB Weld on a stem many years ago, used sizing wax as a release agent, and it worked like a charm. For 3 years now, I’m using a micrometer universal seater that adjusts from 224 all the way up to 338. I have written down the settings in my not book for each of the different cartridges and calibers I load for so I can hit my CBTO measurements with a high degree of accuracy every time. It never marks a bullet, but then again I don’t crimp, anything but pistol bullets. I don’t even crimp for my ARs. I have seen with pistol bullets and a heavy crimp it’s possible for the case mouth to bite into the bullet before the seating stem finishes pushing it down. Which will definitely mark the nose.
