Stuck case

[Adam5]

I guess that I’m through sizing .350 Legend brass for a few days. My friend that I reload with has a stuck case remover. We’ll be using it this weekend.

I appreciate the offer, but it will be Saturday until I can do it anyway. I use a Lee hand press to size brass at my coffee table. A friend that I finish loading the processed brass with has a vise, a real press, and a stuck case remover. Besides, it’s his die that a case stuck in.

Been there and done that. They are not real hard to get out. There are several methods. Good luck…

Here is a video on how to remove a Stuck Case. Most of these items can be gathered at a hardware store, but buy a quality bolt for removing the case. It isn't that hard to do.

Yep, been there also. I have a Lyman stuck case removal kit, works rather well. Besides mention of lack of lube, other factors can be the type of brass, then fit into the shell holder. At times I’ve improvised with a shell holder that wasn’t ideal for the case. Why would I do that you ask? I load some oddball rounds, milsurp, obsolete, etc. Another reason ‘was’ I normally use an older turret press, shell plates for the various cases almost impossible to find, though I have most.

I have since added a single stage press, easier to source the proper shell holder.

I had a number of stuck 300BLK cases in a Hornady sizing die, I switched to Lee Die set, and no more issues.
