    .223 - 77gr SMK - seating die mangling tips?

    Re: .223 - 77gr SMK - seating die mangling tips? I'm not as worried about the ring as much. Take a look at the tip see how its deformed. It really shows in the top picture as the tip is no longer uniform but one side is crunched in. Any ideas how to avoid this?

    .223 - 77gr SMK - seating die mangling tips?
