" The only problem I have with (the Lee seater plug) is it gets gunked up with bullet lube when loading cast bullets. I regularly have to take it apart and push the internal part out and remove all the bullet lube and lead fragments so the 'floater' actually floats. Meh."

Gunking up is true of any seater with cast bullets, not limited to Lee's. It's easier to clean a Lee seater than most others so ....??

The bullet guides in Lee's seaters are bored very snug to reduce runout, that makes them great for jacketed but oversized lead bullets do tend to bind. So, those who load greatly oversized lead bullets should get another brand of die with a sloppy fitted bullet guide chamber. Personally, I NEVER size cast stuff more than one thou over bore diameter so Lee's have never been a problem for me.
