[QUOTE="Frog4aday, post: 1647514, member: 9308"] For the "regular" Accubond, probably okay with either. I'd use the 'standard' seater. For anyone else reading this who MIGHT be using the the AccuBond [I]Long Range[/I], it looks like you should go with the VLD seater on those (per Nosler FAQ page): "[I]Because of the long ogive and soft nose of the [B]AccuBond® Long Range[/B] bullets, standard seating stems in certain dies may leave a ring indentation at the nose after being seated. In some cases, it may even cause rippling in the nose and/or bullet run-out (banana shape) which causes inaccuracy. Forester, Redding and RCBS all provide specially designed seating stems that accommodate long ogive bullets such as the AccuBond® Long Range."[/I] [URL]https://faq.nosler.com/index.php?action=artikel&cat=3&id=82&artlang=en[/URL] [/QUOTE]
