LEE "unbreakable" decapping pin ???

[thunderflash]

Just snapped off the " unbreakable "Lee decapper in my .223 die .( no it was'nt in a berdan case ) Does anyone know where In Canada I can order another one a little more "unbreakable "-- Been more than two years & don't want the B.S. of the States for just a $3.00 dollar pin.
-----------------------------------------------
Lesson learned : shoulda stuck with DILLON --- last time a 1-800 phone call --& presto new decapper , PLUS spare at the door by courier !

Higginson Powders has them in stock I picked one up this past week.

Unbreakable be damned! I have 6 infront of me.

Me, I've broken RCBS, but so far, only bent Lees' pins.
RCBS sent me some for free. I straitened the Lees.

I've pulled out one,once. I noticed a roller from a u-joint cap,looked about right??check

I decap all my rifle rounds with a Lee handheld and a plastic hammer. Gives me another chance to check all casings.

They usually send them to me for free.

They usually send them to me for free

same here even when it is my fault for over tightening them.

Ease off on the collet nut a bit and the problem goes away.

David Doyle is right about the collet. Set the collet so it pops the primers, but slides up before it snaps or bends.

Thanks guys !! Gotta admit , it was close to "bar" tight , cause I didn't want the hassle of finding just the right "give". Phone's in hand after this post.
---------- BTW Repete , Nice collection you've got there!
Update ; just got off the phone with "LEE", I've gotta send the broken one in before any replacement happens. ---- Dillon 's still the "service champ , IMO
