I never loaded with steel dies before. I had all carbide dies and recently acquired several sets of steel dies from a friend. He asked me to put together some 45-70 for him. I read the instructions for these dies and when I tried to resize a few, they developed several dimples all around the top of the cases. The dimples are too low for the expanding die to remove them. I tried backing the sizer out to be flush with the shell holder at the top of the stroke and I tried backing it out about a quarter turn with no change. I'm afraid that if I back the sizer out too much, it won't resize and I do not have a barrel to try them in. I'm using all RCBS equipment. I lubed the cases with RCBS lube.
Can anyone tell me why this is happening and what to do to correct it?
Thanks
