Good advice. Couple more things to be mindful of.
1. Check outside neck diameter before and after seating the projectile. 2 to 3 thousands is what I am seeing.
2. Chamfering will help reduce the pressure required to seat.
3. Flat base projectiles generally require more seating pressure than boat tail projectiles.
4. You may see a slight ring in the projectile casing after seating depending on projectile jacket thickness. For example I see this if using nosler 129 ABLR projectiles.
