I broke my decapping pin in my .223 die and I cant find Redding pins around here. Will RCBS pins work? Thanks for your help! The pin designs have varied over the years even on RCBS alone, let alone between die companies. I prefer the older dies that just us a plain straight pin. You can cut them out of drill rod. |

Use the shank of a drill bit if its a straight pin, just remember to radius the end of it so it doesn't catch on the flash hole (just enough to break the sharp edge, don't put a point on it!)
