The other day, in this thread:
Depriming and sizing die quit working
gonoles_1980
I mentioned that if you would have witnessed me trying to unscrew the collet/decap pin from my 9mm lee die that you would have thought it looked like a bad game of Twister, since I was half-rolling in the floor and had a foot on one wrench and a hand on another. A poster said I shouldnt have had to do that, that it should be easier. The thread was quickly heading towards the bash Lee/ praise Dillon/RCBS variety, so Walkalong had to close it before I could mention that when I got the pin unscrewed finally, I saw that the threading was all warped/mucked up. I have a Universal Decap Dies so I had just been sizing and depriming separately since then.
Soooo, long story short, the thread reminded me about the threading, so I took a pic and emailed Lee and they're sending me a new die out. So thanks Lee and thanks Gonoles-1980.
And of course I wanted everyone to know that I don't just roll around the floor playing Twister with wrenches and dies if there's not a real good reason !!
