BBerg, By replacing the expander button with a 224 button I have had good luck with the 70gr. Speer, 63gr. Sierra, 50gr. balistic Tip. and 55gr. Rem. bullets in an old Savage 99. By good luck I mean they shoot as well as some old Speer .228 bullet I have and generally better than the 70gr .227 Hornady. This is not a real accurate rifle with the best groups runing around 1.5 inches at 100 yds. I started by simply removing the depriming stem and expander button from my die sizing the case and and using it that way. Bullets seated easy with a good chamfer, but did have to deprime in a seperate step with a univesal deprime die, saw no change in accuracy when I started using the 224 expander but did eliminate the extra step to deprime.
