Me too I use mine for a tire iron. I've welded an eye bolt unto it so I can anchor the boat now..wink

Of course, Hoot is right, for flat nosed bullets it works great! However, out of laziness, I use my ftx seater to seat FP's it picks up the Ojive even though sometimes it doesn't make really pretty loads, leaving a slight ring, when I'm in a hurry, around the Ojive just south of the point..

I have used it in a 9mm,once. it sits so high, that any adjustment will cause bullet setback. I have a bunch of them. I'm sure I can put them to use somewhere.
Another thing included in the Hornady set is the C ring, it is next to the extra primer pins with the instructions, I've never used one ever.
