.270 issues

[deadownwind]

Hey Nutterz,

I have reloaded thousands of pistol ammo and I am moving on to rifle. My first couple that I tried to resize ended up denting the case just below the shoulder. I am using Redding case lube. I think I had to much lube on them and have rectified the problem. On to my next issue. My brass will enter the FL die no problem with little resistance, but when I try to pull the brass out of the die, it hangs up on (I think) on the case mouth or neck. It's to the point where I have to use all my force to get it out of the die. I am afraid that I am going to sheer off the brass and end up with a stuck case. What am I doing wrong here?
I am using all redding equipment. Brass is once fired winchester.

Please any help is appreciated.

Thanks,

DDW

Are you cleaning and lubricating inside the case necks?

Are you lubing the inside of the case neck?

No I wasn't. I thought about it but thought I would check with you guys first.

Clean out the carbon with a case neck brush or a suitable bore brush. You can spread a little case lube on the cleaning brush or apply it after cleaning with a Q-tip.

Lubing inside the neck not only make the procedure easier it also produces case necks with less run-out.
