Nope.

The first thing I would do is back the die out 1/2 to 3/4 of a turn and screw the seater plug back in till I got back to the seating depth that I originally had.
Those are my thoughts. </div></div>
I reload 3 bullets at 3 different OAL's so it's constantly moving. I measured all the brass thinking the same thing, not the problem.

These were the 3rd loadings on this brass and I ONLY had trouble with those bullets at that powder charge at that seating depth.
67.4gr of Ramshot Mag in a fireformed necksized case under a 208gr Amax at 3.46 OAL.
