I also use a dummy round as a reference, I then back the die adjustment out about 1/4 turn and work my way back in till the ogive length desired is met, especially when working with compressed loads you as I am, you may find the die setting is different to seating an empty case, well at least that's what I have found. I can only assume the compressed load creates more resistance ? I don't crimp my live rounds.
