whats can i do to polish the inside of a sizing die. it has some kind of little scratch that it is leaving on my cases
 
Jeff,
Get some of the green 3M Scotchbrite scrubbing pads from your local grocery or dollar store. Cut off a piece about 1" X 1 1/2" - depends on die size. Slit the end of a short piece of appropriately-sized wood dowel, or wrap it on a brass brush, and use your cordless VSR drill to spin it. With a bit of patience and some in&out motion, you can put your die back to factory new finish. You may have to go small, if the scratch is in the neck of the die. I have done this a lot, and have never had it alter the size any detectable amount. It will even work on carbide dies; just takes longer.
Good Luck,,,,,,,,,,Bug
