Good advice above... Back the seating die a full turn or turn and a half away from the shell holder when the ram is raised up to the highest position.  You shouldn't be anywhere near the crimp position of the die now.  All you need to do here is remove the bell at the case mouth that you put in earlier so you have a straight case with a seated and uncrimped bullet.  Adjust your seating stem to seat the bullet to the desired depth.  Crimp in a separate operation with either a good roll crimp or a LEE Factory Crimp Die.
