    Edit* Just went back to the press and wound the die in a further 3/4 turn, on some brass it has removed the bump others have been reduced but belt is still visible. However in the process of doing this could I potentially be bumping the shoulder back to far?
    The 9.3 x62 doesn't have much shoulder, I would be more worried, about the shoulder than the ring on the brass,
    3/4 turn is quite a lot, you may end up with head space issues, I would recommend you reset the die, to the instructions, or at least, only resize a few brass, and test before doing any more.
    If you have any factory unfired rounds, you can put them in shell holder, and screw the die body down on to it, remove, and then install the decaper pin etc.
