[QUOTE="winmagman, post: 432556, member: 1193"] Well.....I just had an "I'll be damned" moment. Your post sent me off to the reloading bench to do some die measuring, something I haven't done before. I assumed the seating die would be just under the diameter of the bullet i.e. .240 or so for a .243 (the die I measured) turns out that is not the case. It actually measures .230, which also happens to be the size of the hole in tha Stoney Point comparator insert that I have. Just lucky I guess. [B]However,[/B] I can now see how there could be the possibility that circumstances could allow for going from jumping to jammed. I guess I just learned something new. Appreciate the lesson. Troutslayer2, Sorry for the misinformation, next time I'll know better. Chris [/QUOTE]
