[QUOTE="nvschütze, post: 1825771, member: 110896"] Yes; the seater must be so set that it will seat longer bullets, like a 55-grain FMJ into a .223 case. It's set too far down to seat a shorter bullet on the bearing surface. Raise the seater spindle and try again. You'll see that same thing when you try to seat very long bullets (like 75-grain A-max bullets) into .223 cases. The ogive is very long and will fall inside the case mouth if the seater isn't raised upward enough to get the bearing surface gripped by the resized neck. [/QUOTE]
