Now that I look at RCBS' directions again, they call them seating and expanding dies. They differ from your dies so maybe I should be using the expander to bell the case and not the powder measure. That would mean that the bullet would get seated at station 4, somehow I don't think I will sleep that well tonight. Damn early christmas presents.

RCBS is never clear on this; I bought the 3 die set and I have the seating and the crimping dies. What I can find online is that if the bullet is not cannelured, then I do not need to use the crimping die, I should just seat.

Is this correct?
