    From what I can see in the picture of your dies, you have a basic Lee kit, a full length resizer & a seating die. Does look like much of your problem is the seating depth. Check out, Gordons Reloading Tool for OAL and you can dial in the particular projectile, but every rifle the lands are different. You will be missing out on your rifles potential. The other guys will sort you out, show you how to find out where the lands are.

    I think you're right. A very quick check (could be wrong) but Lee 2 die sets are as you say FLS and Seater..
    Their neck sizing die is their collet die.
