Regarding stuck cases and Lee cast aluminum presses and their warranty/guarantee
From another post of mine
I have Lee dies, Hornady dies, RCBS dies, Bair dies. Have been reloading for close to 55 years. Yet to have a defective die.
Man, I'm a lucky little critter.
Take it a step further and enclude equipment, add L.E. Wilson dies, Sinclair equipment and others, yet to have anything defective. I did break a Lee Press once trying to size 30/06 cases and forgot to lube some, told Lee what happened, they still sent me a free press, this was with a press that I had no idea how old it was, but I did explain to them is was bought at a garage sale over 5 years previously, still got a replacement at no charge.
Ya, I know, Lee sucks, just try to convince me of that.
Do I know what I'm talking about, YUP!

I have Hornady one shot spray lube, lyman spray case lube, lee case lube and RCBS case lube....I like the Hornady the best but all of them wash off real easy after resizing and decapping. I have a little mesh bag like women put bra's in that after I resize a bunch of them I put into the dishwasher and wash them off and then let them dry, usually in the dishwasher but sometimes I have to put them on a tray to finish drying, you can also put them in a tumbler to remove the case lube.
Wow $70 for a pound of Varget....Order from Powder Valley even with the one time hazardous fee of $27.5 that would put a pound for about $45 and if you order more than that if gets cheaper.
I cannot get powder or case lube at my LGS, I have to drive halfway across Kansas to get powder at a reasonable price (lucky for me the VA Medical Center is 2 blocks from there) and its a Hobby Store, I havent seen case lube there either.

That was a pound of Varget AND 1000 primers. About what it would cost at my LGS because their powder prices are kind of high and their primer prices are ridiculous.
The OP solved this almost 2 pages ago and it is now wandering around like an old cow. Done.
