I am getting a few 30-30 cases and some 303 british cases that have small dents after resizing, what am I doing wrong??
Are they safe to shoot after reloading??
 
The dents are caused by too much lube. Just rub some on the body of the case and a bit inside the case neck. Do not put any lube on the shoulder as this is why you get the dents. You can safely reload and shoot the dented ones, after firing, they will pop back into shape.
 
I pushed a small paperclip through the hole in the side of the die and cleared out the stuff that was blocking the hole. The stuff had hardened and completely blocked the vent hole. I washed out the die with WD-40 and dried it off with a paper towel inside and out.
I put less lube on the case and tried sizing a few more cases, it worked....happy with the results. Thanks for the suggestions.
