[QUOTE="CRNA, post: 486291, member: 22495"] Well, as for the case lube, I was using the Lyman case lube. I actually thought I was being a little too generous with the lube. You can actually see in a couple of the pics the lube on my fingers from just touching the case. I tried to unscrew the decapping pin from the top of the die. It only moves a little and then it binds as well. The decapping pin is through the primer pocket, so I can't get to it to drill and tap it. I will look into the wax as mentioned earlier. I just don't really know how the heck it happened so easily. I could have understood it if I had just a skim of lube on there, but these suckers were downright greasy!!! Any advice on how to remove the decapping pin so I can go to work on it? Oh, and also, how do you guys clean your dies? Keep in mind, this is a very new set of dies and brass. I only used the dies to size the new brass to straighten the necks out from shipping. This is the VERY FIRST time I have used the dies to actually punch out spent primers!! [/QUOTE]
