[QUOTE="statjunk, post: 412438, member: 18873"] Hello All, I just got my first Redding Comp Seater. I tried calling Redding but they are shut down for the first two weeks of Aug, so no phone support. I read the directions that come with the die and I locked my die down into the press correctly. Just to make sure here is what I did. With shell holder in place I sent the ram to the top. I then dialed the die into the press fully compressing the sliding sleeve. I then backed out the die 3/4 turn to get the graduations to facing me. The question is how do I, when seating bullets for the first time, make large adjustments to get the seating depth close before making the small adjustments with the micro meter? Actually I'd like to set up the die so that I can seat directly to the lands with the micro meter set to zero-zero. That way I can dial in the exact amount of seating off the lands for a given bullet. How do I do that specifically? Thanks Tom [/QUOTE]
