It could be the die I stuck one case in my first 25 years of reloading a 270 in a redding die I bought a stuck case remover. Which I got to use a lot several years later my son bought a .223 so I got a set of dies Hornadys. First time we were loading 10 or 12 rounds one stuck no big deal thought we missed lubing one pulled the case. 15 or 20 shells later same thing. After you stick one your are real careful making sure you lube em. To look at the dies they look fine.Next time I was at the gun shop I bought a set of RCBS haven't stuck a case since.I use imperial sizing wax. I did't send them back should have just threw them in a drawer somewhere. stuck a lot more than just the two times listed above.Like I said the dies look fine don't know why cases stick doesn't make any sense
 
I tried Hornady spray lube earlier this month which immediately resulted in a stuck case. After I finished cussing and banging it out of my $12.00 Lee die with a hammer and punch I picked up a bottle of Dillon spray lube and haven't looked back.
2k rounds of assorted .308 loaded this month and not another stuck case since the lube switch.
