Stuck case removal thingamajig.

[Somerset Bar]

I had to get a .223 case out of a Redding die, I used some dillion spray lube but forgot to spray the die itself and got one wedged. I almost ordered an RCBS die removal tool until I looked at what was in it, and figured I had all the stuff here already. Might be of use to someone, and it works great. <10 min vid.

A useful vid but you can also use a socket instead of a hunk of pipe as it is available and a bit sturdier than the copper pipe.

True except that the pipe can be cut to any length, to be honest I didn't have a socket that fit the bolts I had on hand. I had lots of copper pipe I guess I'm used to cutting pipe for spacers and shims

Plus I put the whole thing away as a 'tool', I honestly thought I was sending it back to redding they really get caught in there.
