Last year I bought 100 new .44 magnum Remington-Peters cases. They were fine the first time I loaded them, but when I tried loading them a second time I discovered that the case walls are thinner than the Winchester cases I have.
These case walls are thin enough so that when they're passed through the resizing die (Lee carbide), the outside diameter is in spec while the inside is still large enough so I can press a bullet into it with my thumb.
Anyone know of a resizing die that's smaller than Lee? Do I really want to buy a new die just to keep from discarding 100 almost-new cases? Isn't that throwing good money after bad?
