Been reading a lot on loading cast and on Matt Darda's site he recommends the Lyman M style 2 stage die to prevent damage to the bullet when loading. Not a problem will order one soon. However I pulled a bullet that I had reloaded using very little flare on the lee expander and seated using a Lee seating doe, I did not use the crimping yet I still found a .001 groove in the bullet from the seating die. So the question is what seating do the cast bullet users here recommend that will not damage the bullet in any way.

the pulled bullet is on the right
edit. cleaned and polished the Lee die, then carefully adjusted it and eliminated the ring
