Seating bullet deformation
I cant figure out why my bullets (Seirra tipped gameking) 180gr. are getting this weird deformed tip when I seat them, any suggestion to stop this from happening? I'm using RCBS 300AAC SB T/C AR series 2pc die set. I'll link a picture below

I was told by my local sporting goods store that the RCBS .300AAC SB T/C 2pcs. die set would deprime, full length resize, seat bullets and crimp. I'm a weekend project bench build from starting my first reloading se...
