.38 seating die stem
Quote from Reloader on February 12, 2010, 11:06 pmI have only been loading .38 wadcutters with this die since 1994. Now I want to do some round nose and .357s. The bullet die stem which is the reversable style says 38WC on it and both sides are the same...flat. I could not find different stems by themself on the website. I take it there are different stems for different shape bullets? I may have lost them in the several moves since 94. BTW...Dillon's service and support is second none. Thanks.

- a reversible RN/SWC
- a flat WC profile on both ends.
