223 Stuck Shell

[Elk2901]

I got a 223 (AR15 rifle) cartridge stuck in the resizer. Problem is that the primer is already inserted.

What do I do now? Order a new resizer die?

I have a stuck case remover. I don't think that I should try it because I have to drill out the primer pocket first.

If you want to send it to me...I'll remove it....

It'll cost you $5.00 for return postage.....not a dime more!

I guess the obvious question is WHY a primed case in the resizeing die???

Yeah, why are you resizing after you prime the cases?

A few things to try, One put it in the freezer overnight and try to remove. Second, soak in some penetrating oil.

Is the deprime pin still in there? Maybe youcould punch out the primer.

If all those fail, RCBS will fix it for ya.

Safety glasses and gloves! If the deprimer pin is in, it probably will push it out without setting it off if you can get some oil in there as mentioned. Your not the 1st to forget to lube the case first. LOL!
