Variance in the Poly tip length,seating stem too shallow for tip clearance on some rounds?
When I switched over to ELD-M's from Amax's my seating stem wouldn't work with the more Secant ogive of the ELD's,had to order a new seating stem for VLD's.While I was waiting for it I decided to drill out the Tangent style stem another 10-20 thou. extra depth.That solved that issue,when the new stem arrived I compared both ,the new one had a slight angle change to match the more Secant ogive profile of the ELD's and extra depth.
After seating with both the main difference I saw was that the old seater stem would leave a very slight ring on the bullet,especially with higher neck tension.
Other than that ,they both worked.
