Thread: Seating Stem Deforming Projectiles on Compressed loads

I have found that my seating stem for my hornady die is creating an indented ring around the projectile, when seating projectiles on compressed loads. I have purchase the eld seating stem for these dies and it is still doing it. Is there an easy way to remedy this? I have thought of buying a seating stem, putting some bedding compound in a seating stem and seating a projectile and leaving it in there overnight to mould to the projectile. Which I think should fix the issue. However i don't have any bedding compound so dont really want to spend the money on a bedding compound just to fix a seating stem. Any help or ideas would be greatly appreciated.
