Regardless of how careful we are, eventually any serious reloader will stick a case.
There are a host of ways in which to minimize the unpleasant phenomenon
of a stuck case and keep your reloading life just a bit happier:
Use only high quality, special purpose manufactured case lube. Ordinary
motor or household oils will not work in this application. We recommend
Imperial Sizing Die Wax or Redding Original Formula Case Lube. Both of
these products are designed to withstand the pressures of case resizing
and case forming without breaking down and causing a case to stick.
Keep resizing dies clean and free of debris. Grime and grit can act as
a wedge helping to stick a case. If your dies are new, the original
preservative oil the dies are shipped with is not a case lube and you should remove it thoroughly before using the die as the instruction sheet stipulates.
After cleaning, apply a light
coating of Imperial Sizing Die Wax or Redding Original Formula Case
Lube to the die's interior with a Q-TipĀ®. Be sure to examine the die
thoroughly and remove any excess.
Lube your case bodies
with the appropriate product, paying special attention to the lowest
1/2 inch of the case at the body / web junction, as this is the thickest
and therefore is where most sticking will occur.
Purchase and keep handy, a Stuck Case Removal Kit for that unhappy day
when you do stick a case. This will allow you to remove a stuck case
quickly, without damaging the die. Be sure to follow the included
instructions carefully.
These tips will add to your reloading efficiency and enjoyment as well as reduce the frustration associated with a stuck case
