RE: Brass Stuck in Die
Take the good advice that's been given, and get a stuck case remover. We ALL have had it happen to us....and let me give you a little personal advice from "been there, done that"....The drill that you use with the remover kit...mine got dull from being used in a pinch for other things around the house. Next time I stuck a case, it was too dull to drill with, so I used the next larger drill size from my shop sets... It was slightly too big for the tap to cit a good thread in, and the puller wouldn't work. Had to attack from above..

got to your local hardware store, buy a 3/8 x 16 tap and a bit for it, drill out the primer pocket and back end of the case, tap it, us spacers to hold the 3/8 bolt off the die, thread the bolt in the case with a nut and washer on it with the spacer between the die and washer/nut, tighten up the nut, presto a home made stuck case remover, works good. Hope it helps
