    @nathang6.5 I had exactly the same issue with ELD-M as they have a really thin jacket, snip one with side cutters and you'll see what I mean. I started with RCBS (terrible), then Hornady with ELD stem (still bad) and finally had to go to Redding with their VLD seater and that fixed the issue completely. No more marks what so ever.
