[QUOTE="Corey Schwanz, post: 1075822, member: 85383"] Best bet is to pull the stem out from the die and put a few bullet tips in it to see if its cupping the ogive properly or if its bottoming out. You'll know pretty quick which one it is. If they are bottoming out on the tip, then you may need to look into a new stem. I have heard of people drilling out a standard stem to accommodate the longer nose but if you don't know what you are doing, you could ruin the stem or cause issues when you go to seat bullets.
