Has to be the flat seater.  They load nice.  The bullet looks the same before and after it goes through the press.   Does the conical make a difference?

The flat anvil is not going to have any "centering" ability as it seats. Usually you want the anvil to haver the same or similar shape as the  ogive so that it centers and seats with no deformation of the tip.

Just checked it comes with round nose seater and semi-wadcutter seater.  So round nose it is.   I’ve loaded 1000’s of these rounds.  Have Dillon case guage and check every round and measure them with dial caliper also.
