Crazyb0 Rest in Peace 10197 Posts	Posted 09/28/2017 11:27 pm Actually it is a strike pressure problem with a tilted die. The greatest pressure was at 12 o'clock causing the area at 6 o'clock to receive a less square on hit. This is also known as a MAD, misaligned die, in this case the rims are not so upset. This is seen on the reverse, opposite strike points are weak and strong respectively. Edited by Crazyb0 09/28/2017 11:28 pm Report this Post to the Staff
