[QUOTE="BigJakeJ1s, post: 381119, member: 12889"] Redding and RCBS competition series, and Forster and Hornady seating dies all have a sliding sleeve that aligns the seater plug and bullet with the case mouth prior to inserting the bullet into the case mouth. Redding and RCBS comp series only come with micrometer adjustment, Forster and Hornady give you a choice. As said above, the micrometer is for convenience in setting the seating depth, and has nothing to do with concentricity of the finished cartridge. However, the RCBS comp and the Hornady seaters' sleeve does not enagage more than the neck and top of the shoulder. The Redding comp and Forster both engage most of the case body too, in order to better center & align the case to the bullet and seating plug. Andy [/QUOTE]
