I am trying out my .223 dies, and the spent shells are so tight, I have to use brute force to get it into the sizer die. I set it up as per the instructions, seating the die just so that 3/8" if the primer removal pin is down, and also set it so that the die is just touching the shell holder.
I tried brand new, never fired brass, and it too had some difficulty, but no where near the once fired brass. Is this typical of the rifle brass? I took out the zip spindle and re-threaded it, that did nothing. however looking at it from the bottom side if the die, it is not exactly center.
Any thoughts? :banghead:
