[QUOTE="bigedp51, post: 1547576, member: 28965"] Below from the reloading dies instructions, new dies no longer have a oil film protection. And the old ways of cleaning dies with a shot of WD-40 or gun oil and a dry rag are long gone. The OP is not the only one to have stuck cases because the dry film preservative was not properly removed. When all else fails read the instructions. Redding Die Preparation All Redding dies are protected in storage and shipment by a rust preventive film, which should be removed before use. [B]Clean the inside of the die with a good grade of bore solvent and a brass brush and then wipe with a clean patch.[/B] [/QUOTE]
