Help pls
Friend has this die which I assume is a FL sizing die. Problem is .243 case won't go in fully about 10mm sticks out of base.
I have checked the inside of die no obstruction!
I have emailed Lee in USA and as yet not got a satisfactory reply.
I can't find this die listed anywhere.
Any idea what die it is?

AFAIK the G9 is just a production date code.

Is there any history to the die, where/when it's been bought, was it part of die set, has it been working previously?

Assuming you and your friend are experienced in reloading (lubing, die setup and so on), I'd try to find another 243 FL die and make some rough measurements with caliper. Like is the shoulder roughly in same place as in the another die etc.
 
Thank you.
I can't fathom it out. He has just started reloading. I couldn't get it to work in his press and it won't work on mine. It is a total mystery.
I thought it was purchased as part of new 2 die set from Reloading Solutions but unsure when that was.
