Jimmy CarterSpeer .50 AE & Lee die set
My Speer Gold Dot cases will not fit in the decapping die. I tried multiple cases & they just won't fit. They'll go about a third of the way up before it gets stuck. I'm assuming that there's nothing to do wrong. They simply just won't fit. I also tried lubng the die & case as well. No dice. I didn't even get around to trying the other dies. The decapper got me so frustrated I gave up. Anyone else hear of this problem? Let me know.
Thanks
I have noticed that my 50 AE nickle brass is harder to size than traditional brass. I don't know what brass you are using. If you are saying that you cant go any further than one third you might check to see if your decapping pin is bent.
