If you have a 3 die set, you can replace the seat plug with the corresponding part in the expansion die. It will leave a light ring visible in the copper jacket, but no problems other than that. I had the same issue when I started reloading for the max. Another thing to consider is just drilling out the center of the seat plug.
BTW, I've taken 4 or 5 whitetails with that bullet, and they all dropped on the spot with one 25 yard exception. From 5 to 180 yards. If I had one handgun to hunt with for the rest of my life, that would probably be it.
