[QUOTE="Ross1147, post: 2043366, member: 106919"] I usually put the shell holder in, run it up then screw the die down until it touches the holder, then back off a full turn. That didn’t work so I kept backing it off until I got a good seating depth with the micro stem set at mid position. This lead to the 2.5 turns. I just ran a empty case in there, backed it off a full turn then tried to seat a 140 absolute Hunter in it with the micro stem backed all the way off and it seated the bullet all the way past the shank to the ogive. I don’t like using the micro stem bottomed out in either direction so I back it off a few turns. This did give me a few more threads so now I’m at 5, but the micro adjuster is on 6 instead of 8 now. Little better but still not like any other die I have? [/QUOTE]
