Let me guess...... One Shot Case Lube.
I only use RCBS case lube with the pad, but I may not have rolled this one...
I went right to drilling and tapping. Pulled the threads right out. Twice.. So just kept drilling bigger and bigger until it started to spin. Its RCBS, I called and just got a recording that they are having technical difficulties right nowWhat timing... I just stuck one the other day too. Also a first. I tried punching out with a dowel but wasn’t happening so waiting for my stuck case removed hope it works. I got greedy trying to set up my die and using the same case lol. What die you using possibly call the manufacturer and they could help u out.
Out of stock unfortunatelyRCBS sells them direct or sportmans usually has them locally.
I had one stuck the other night with one shot, think I am done with that stuff. Happens too often.
Not sure, I have never used it. It seems like it could speed my reloading up a bit. The only issue I could see is maybe consistent coverage?What's the rub on one-shot? I've sized maybe 10k cases using it and never had a stuck case.
I'm with you on this one. It seems to work just fine for me IF it is applied a tad liberally to the die and cases at all directions and make sure it gets in the case mouth as well. Then you must let it sit, I usually wait at least 5-10 min. Probably don't need to quite that long though. Only caveat is, I typically only use it on pistol cases and 223 type stuff I don't use it on large or magnum rifle cases. For those I like to use Imperial, positive extraction every time. Also since I mentioned two different lubes I want to add that when I do use a different type I completely clean the die(s) of the old or different lube before I start using another.What's the rub on one-shot? I've sized maybe 10k cases using it and never had a stuck case.
It was actually my first attempt at military 556 with the crimped primer. I heard a crunch and it was too late. Snapped the decapping pin and case was stuckIt wasn't Hornady brass was it? I've had two stuck cases in my lifetime, and both were Hornady brass in two different calibers with RCBS lube years apart.
This is exactly what happened. I didn't realize that was a thing, but when I was drilling out the pocket there were two holes. WTFOne more thought,
Some military cases are Berdan primed which means two flash holes on either side of the primer pocket, they will destroy a decaping pin and possibly the stem every time. shine a light through the case mouth to verify, it will look like a bridge across the primer pocket.
I emailed RCBS and they are going to send me one, but it will take a couple weeks before I'll see it. Very good serviceWhat timing... I just stuck one the other day too. Also a first.
