HELP ! Flash hole plugged with media - Drives me bananas!

[Ky Larry]

I use the nipple pick from my muzzle loader to knock the little pieces of media out of the primer holes. No big deal.

Like Randy1911 said. If you use a progressive for rifle loading (previously sized cases) a universal decapper clears the flash hole nicely in place of the sizing die.

All the tumbler makers say don't do it. The powder makers say don't do it. I'm sure that they are smarter than me, so I don't do it.

All the tumbler maker lawyers say don't do it. The powder maker lawyers say don't do it.
All the ammo manufactures do do it.

Since when am I supposed to start believing the lawyers. I'll go with the ammo manufactures, I'm sure they are smarter than me, so do it.

Bought some of the treated media from Georgia Arms at a gun show, the stuff is very fine, cleans real good and does not stick in primer flash holes

I straighten out a large paper clip and poke the media out of the hole. Simple but effective.
