Couldn’t get my Lee die to seat the 50gr VMAX in my 223 cases deep enough to be past the lands.

I got a tip from CGN and used hot glue in the seating stem, with a bullet rammed up into it to make a mold and help get the right depth.

It worked and now I have 30, 223 rounds to take to the range. I always load a batch or two hot so I know I hit the potential of the rifle, so I loaded from 25.5-28.0gr of Varget in them. I most likely won’t shoot the 28.0gr ones, but depending on velocities and pressure signs, they may go down range.
