[QUOTE="royinidaho, post: 1196091, member: 2011"] Only similar...but, End of uneven SMK tips touched end of seater. Resulted in excessive ES. Drilled completely through. Bullet then rested on now mated ogive and seater. ES problem solved. Switched bullets. Ogive shape now "grasped" the seater sufficiently to pull the bullet greatly lengthening COL. I simply chucked one of the new bullets in their lathe tail stock and the seater in their chuck, kept coating there bullet with toothpaste and honed until there was a bearing surface instead of a sharp point of contact. No fuss no muss no bother. And it worked. Think about it. [/QUOTE]
