Broke Lee 223 Decapping Pin

If you put it in an envelope and send the broken ones in they will send you a replacement .

Did that with a few Loadmaster primer sliders I crushed .
My fault for not having it set up right .
In my defense their directions suck .

My heavily used Lee 9mm resizing die had the decapping pin break. It probably saw a few Berdan cases in the past, and a bunch of crimp primers too. I don't know the actual overall count, but probably over 100K. I'm sure I got my money's worth out of it.

I repaired with a decapping rod from a Lee .308 Win resizing die that I had scrapped. I know it's a weird combo, but it works and I didn't have to wait for parts.

(I've switched to Redding resizing dies with a carbide neck expander button for bottleneck cartridges.)
