[QUOTE="Centre Punch, post: 74580, member: 3048"] Hi Derek The floating bullet seating stem is hardened whereas the chamber sleeve is not( a simple file test will show this). Them seating stem has the end ground after hardening and if there is a sharp edge left on the stem it quite possible that this is causing the shaving of tiny slivers in the guide bore. An easy possible cure would be to: rotate the end of your stem gently on a fine India stone at a 45 degree angle a couple of times, just enough to take away the the sharp edge and leave a barely visible chamfer. If this does not work, then i think you should consider sending them back to Redding, although i know it is quite difficult for us living here in the UK. The official importers are not much use, but would it be possible to get them to exchange the suspect die with Reddings authority? Oh i forgot, at the snails pace that these people work you could be waiting for a long time. Ian. "I mean't to shoot the pike but the duck got in the way" [/QUOTE]
