[QUOTE="g0rd0, post: 705861, member: 44168"] once many years ago loading 308win in rcbs dies (only not balistic tips but I was deforming the lead point). How I cured the problem was I put the bullet seat in a lathe chuck and useing a small drill bit deepened the nose cavity then with an other bit that was just a tad larger than the base of the exposed lead (or balistic portion of the tip) widened the cavity so that the bullets jacket contacted the seat while also not allowing the tip to contact the seat. But, becarefull to be sure that your tools and bits are centered and that the wide bit you use is just wide enough to do the job doing this will allow the bullet to easly center its self without deforming your tip [/QUOTE]
