Stuck Cases in Rifle Dies

[beauxdog]

Ok Folks,

Most have done this or will do this at some time and that is getting a rifle case stuck in a die. It can happen for a few reasons but the most common is not enough lube on the case. Once your case is stuck and you can tell this by your reloading bench coming off the floor while trying to get the case out of the die.
DO NOT try beating the case out of the die, pulling it out with pliers or any other home solutions. All you will do is get pissed off and ruin your die. There is a way to easly remove stuck case from your die. There are several good stuck case removal kits from the different die makers. They consist of a drill bit, tap, bolt, wrench and metal cap. If you follow the directions and I know that's the hard part, you can easily remove the offending case with out damage to your die.
We sell several of these kits for folks. So if you have any questions about this or any other reloading question just give us a call at 225-389-6077.

Thanks,

I have the RCBS stuck case remover and have used it twice, works and is a very wise investment.

I machined my own and it was worth the time

No matter if you purchase a kit or make your own. The point is the same, a hammer is not the right tool for this job. If you have the right equipment to make your own kit then by all means do it. If not then a ready made kit works great.
