I took the seater off the press and started over. This time I worked up some Barnes 130 gr ttsx bullets. Put seater back on press and adjusted it according to instrutions. Worked fine maybe occasionally off .001 to .002 off, but not really a problem. Thinking maybe there was something about the fit of the seater and the Norma bullet that caused the bullet to be pulled out a smidge on the down-stroke. The outside of the Barnes probably a little harder than the gilding material on the Norma, so less chance of sticking. Feel better about equipment anyway— thanks to all for input—Bill

It's the hunt, not the kill.
