[QUOTE="MontanaRifleman, post: 348837, member: 11717"] I had this problem with my 300 RUM and a Redding body die. The cases (3 of them) had been overpressured from load development and got stuck when I tried to rsize them. I should have learned my lesson from the first one. Here's how I dealt with it. I screwed the die in the press upside down with casehead up. Then I screwed a self drilling/tapping 1/4 hex dead screw into the primer pocket. Then I got a crow bar and put the claw under the head of the hex screw and lever pulled the case out. After that, when I started to "feel" the case going into the die too tight I backed off. and ran it up again just a little and backed off again and repeated this until the whole case was sized. So if you get a tight case going into the die, dont try to do it all in one stroke. Use multiple strokes a little at a time and it will work fine. I use Hornady One Shot Lube and i thuink it's the best stuff on the market. Hope that helps, Mark [/QUOTE]
