Default RE: 270 brass just a necked down 30-06?

ORIGINAL: TUK101

Trade some of that 06 brass for some 270 brass. Somebody reading this thread has probably got some 270 to spare and is in need of 06. I tried doing that with a regular 270 sizing die, not really researching it first and pretty much ended up ruining my die when the case got stuck and I had to grind it with a dremel to get it off the sizing ball. Oh well lol, we all learn somehow.
Going from .308" to .277, shouldn't have ruined a die. Cause all your sizing is the neck. Thats really strange. What kinda die was it? Did you use imperial wax or some other quality lube? I mean I use neck dies on occassion with no lube whatsoever and still never had this happen. Just always curious when I see something like this.
