Welcome to the Guide George.
If I understand your question, use the seating plug that most closely matches the nose profile of the bullet you want to load. Sometimes it's not a perfect match, but as long as you are not distorting the bullet during the seating process you're OK.

Thank you for the help that is what I though.now I stuck a 9 m case in my sizing die!
You stuck a 9mm case in a carbide sizing die? Did the case rim tear off?

I hate when that happens. My first stuck case was more than enough for me. You need to get an extractor kit to remove it.
