[QUOTE="outlawsix, post: 163488, member: 1709"] Spray lube is good stuff, I use Dillon. But you must follow the instructions. It says to let it dry. Just for your own purpose. Spray some cases then let them dry for about 5-10 minutes. After they are dry spray another case. Then feel how the just sprayed one feels compared to the one that dried. You will feel the difference. Now to get the stuck ones out. Do you have any taps? Now this is just to get you out in a pinch but here it goes. If you have a tap that is a bigger OD that the primer pocket ID. First drill the appropriate size hole in the case base. Then tap the hole. Then find a bolt for the threads that is about 2" or so long. With the die mounted upside down in the press. Place a socket over it. The side that snaps into the socket wrench facing up. The purpose of the socket is to give you a space for the case to move into while you are tightening the bolt. Then you take your bolt with a washer on it through the socket and screw it into the hole you tapped in the case base. Then screw the bolt into the case. As you continue to screw the bolt into the case it will start to pull the case out of the die and into the free space in the socket. I hope I explained it well. If not let me know. Hope this helps.
