Yesterday I received RCBS reloading dies for my 380. I set up the seating die to specs and tried to reload an empty case. I adjusted the die for the taper crimp and then the bullet seater plug. The plug was set to the lowest point and I still couldn't get the right OAL. To compensate I had to turn down the entire unit. Now the bullets (Ranier 95 gr) have a groove around them where the taper crimp should be. Is this normal or could I be risking over pressure on the round? Lyman manual states OAL of .900 for 95 gr FMJ and Alliant powder specs state .975. Don't want to do anything stupid as I like my hands and face the way they are. LOL John
PS: The resizing and expander dies worked OK.
