Archived [ARCHIVED THREAD] - Glad I use Lee dies!
Posted: 1/25/2009 5:16:54 PM EDT
While decapping and resizing some 5.56 cases tonight, my third case got stuck. Having never experienced this before, I went to the web to look for a cure. To my surprise all I needed was a 3/16" punch, a 1/2" open end wrench, a 3/4" open end wrench, and a hammer.

Easy fix! None of the next 200 got stuck.

+1 I love lee dies. Cheap, and they work great! It is probably one of the most robust decapping systems on the market.
