Match seating die stems

[257Roberts]

I've been using standard Redding die seater plugs for my match rlfles. I've noticed I am borderline proper bullet engagement with super long projectiles like ELD-X and ELD-M.

Wondering if compeition micrometer seating dies come with the VLD plugs or whether they are special order only?

You can request them thru redding, get them with a wilson die or modify your own if you have a lathe

I believe that the competition still come with the standard stems. Places like brownells should have what you need in stock hopefully and not a special order.
