vickerman in-line seating die
i saw an ad for these in the back of a hanloader journal magazine, i went to the horrible website www.vickermandies.com and cant really find any info on them
i looked around the interwebs at a few pics, and from what i understand, there is a little window that opens up on the downstroke which you insert the bullet into, am i even close? i am hoping that these would possibly make seating flat based 224 easier to seat any experience with vicker? are they compatible with lee presses?

so i would be coorect in thinking that this would make seating a flat-based rifle bullet easier? you wouldnt have to hold the bullet on top up to the die, with a tolerence of 001 over bullet diameter, that would keep it plenty straight
i might have to get one if someone can give a positive first-hand experience with it

forster dies are great for flat base bullets. they have a collar that keeps the bullet aligned with the case as it is raised into the die. I have one for my .308 and it's wonderful
