[QUOTE="woods, post: 584169, member: 6042"] IME all seating dies push on the ogive by design but some may have a problem with a particularly pointed bullet. In that case it wouldn't matter who the manufacturer was you would have to take the seating stem out and make some adjustments. What is good about the Redding or Forster seating dies is that they encapsulate the case body with a floating sleeve and align the bullet and case neck. Personally I prefer the RCBS Competition or Gold Match seaters because they have a window in the side for loading the bullet and a micrometer top so they make life much easier. In my tests they do as well as the Redding Comp seaters but many here do not agree so I left them out to avoid controversy :D [/QUOTE]
