I have gotten a brass casing stuck in my lee resizing die. Do you guys have any suggestions for getting it out? I have tried brute force (pulling on the casing with pliers) that was unsuccessful. I tried undoing the punch and pushing it from the top but the punch will not come out. I really need some suggestions…
take the die. clamp it up solid. remove the collet that holds the decapper pin. this will leave you with a big hole with a small pin in the middle. get a good sized hammer and a block of wood. place wood on pin. Hit with BFH till it comes loose. then you will have the pin stuck in the case. cut it off since it’s screwed anyways
You could try one of these stuck case removers.
A buddy of mine got a case stuck in a sizing die once (Dillon trim die in case it matters)
He used a wooden dowel down from the top and hit it AFTER heating the die with a propane torch and hiting the case with cold air from a can of compressed air upside down
Hitting it alone did not do it
