Thread: A couple of new toys comp seating die and Comparator for Measuring sholder bump etc

Hay guys picked up a couple of bits of kit for my new rifle
And haven’t got any experience with how to use them
The 1st is a redding competition seating die
The instructions are a little vague I have got it set correctly in the press that was easy but im haveing troubble
With seating depth adjustments from reading the instructions you get it close with the alan key adjustment in the top while holding the micro Meter on zero? Then do fine adjustment will have the Micrometer ?
But when usesing the micrometer im getting anywhere from 1-5 thou of adjustment per 1 thou mark🧐
So im doing something wrong??

Second is the hornady Comparator set when useing to messure Cartridge bass to ojive
It’s giving me strange measurements like 3 or 4 different measurements for the same cartridge

If i messure coal they are the same within reson

Can anyone in lighten me where ive fucked up 😂
