If you can get in the case from the top. Drive it out with a punch. I stuck a case good the other day. Rotated the case to slide out shell holder, removed the deprimer pin and hit a punch with a lawn mower hammer and out it came. I put the die in a big vise with leather pads, no risk of damaging the press.

I ended up removing the die, unscrewing the deprimer and using a punch to drive out the stuck case. I used a brass hammer to drive it out.

Where could I get a lawn mower hammer that would be appropriate for driving out the case? It sounds like I need to add one to my arsenal of tools.

Where in the hell can I get a lawn mower hammer? Does it come with the purchase of a new lawn mower? If so, I’m highly pissed mine did not come with one…

Go to any hardware store and ask, they keep them behind the counter. You have to ask.

That is pretty much the way I do it.

Next time I’m at Ace, the helpful place, I’ll check aisle 9. Is the wood stretcher next to the bubble water? I need to top off my level.

It's just down from the spot where they keep the sparks for the angle grinder.
