[QUOTE="Earnhardt, post: 1066900, member: 53157"] I'm going to start reloading bullets CBTO with Berger .30 cal 230 grns in a 300 RUM In my standard RCBS seating die I can get a max overall cartridge length of 3.95" In my Redding Competition die I can get a max overall cartridge length of 3.845", Which still leaves me quite a ways off of the lands. I love the fine tune capability of the Redding Comp die, but the RCBS gets me where I need to be for cartridge length. Do all brands of dies have a different max length that they will seat a bullet for a factory round such as the 300 RUM? Has anyone used a Redding VLD seating micrometer on to of a RCBS, or brand of seating die? If so, did it shorten the max overall length that it will seat a bullet, from what it would seat bullets at before putting the Redding VLD micrometer on it? How's the repeatability with the micrometer? Thanks [/QUOTE]
