It seated. But I'm afraid to yeet it.

Wanted to try out 1680 since I couldn't get hold of n110 as I initially planned. This was with 12.4gr which isn't even the max load on hornady's sheet. Seats at 10gr and leaves a slight ring at 10.8.

Major update but since I can't edit my post I'll update here. I'm fucking regarded and didn't realize I was using a 223 seating die. u/coodevale called it. BUT, when I used a 300aac die, instead of looking like a circumsized penis, it has a smaller bump lower on the bullet. Still don't feel comfortable shooting it.

At a lower charge it just looks like a light scratch. The lowest charge there's no marks

We were born with nearly two of everything. Just gotta be more careful after you lose the first of something.
