Resizing some brass (PPU) and pulled the base off the case,does any body know how to get the case out.
Before anybody says it I use Winchester but I thought I might try and see what ppu is like with my .223 load.

No problem.
Its a two piece item in the shape of a round complete with rim. Its put inside the stuck case and the working parts allowed forward to push it home. It then expands and grips the case from within allowing it to be extracted. Probably a .223 one on issue now for the SAW thingy. Should work even if the case is in a die rather than a chamber. |

Hello over there, what you want is called a broken shell extractor
You should be able to find one online pretty easily, they run from 10 to 25 USD and can be a lifesaver. You simply insert it from the broken end and tighten down, this forces the toothed end to grab the rim of the shell and then give a good pull. I hope this helps |

I hope this helps Thanks for the info,but I fixed it this morning.I used a similar idea, I used a tap(from a tap and die set)screwed it into the bottem of the case and knocked it out with a wooden mallet.
