    Well no I haven’t physically read the side of the die but they were brand-new set from the shop so unless lee stuffed up in the factory it is @Gibo

    @Gibo no you have it 100% right
    I normally leave a slight gap between the die and shell holder but i had to touch the shell holder with the die
    Plus wind the seating stem all the way in is far as it goes just to get it to chamber in the rifle
    It’s still touching the lans but chambers smoothly so not ideal but it’s the best I could do to get him shooting

    Can’t screw it down any more it’s already touching the shell holder
