I too have had loose cores in my RBT dies with the first die. I find that soaking the cores in acetone to get all the lube off helps some, but still there are some that pop up a little. The BT2 die seats it ok, and I worried that it would effect accuracy. After seeing friends shoot in the .2 range, I'm satisfied that if there is any trapped air, it can't be much.
