[QUOTE="Chase723, post: 2336539, member: 21524"] My .375 barrel came in this week and I just dropped it off at my gunsmith. I made him a dummy round to chamber off of. I’m shooting the 365gr Badlands SBII and also found that they were bottoming out on my seating stem (Hornady die w/ micrometer seating stem)…so I put it in a vice, selected a drill bit of the same diameter as the seating stem hole and just drilled the hole deeper. Worked great. The orifice of the original opening still rests on the ogive and centers it within the stem (beyond it and the tip doesn’t contact it at all) and so I’m pretty sure concentricity will still be as good as it can get with that setup. A VLD type stem might accommodate other monolithics but if you can’t get one this might work for you as well, only took a few seconds, and was free. [/QUOTE]
