Thoughts on Hornady lock n load system

[Dale Gribble]

I currently have a stuck case in my .223 die, I need to try the self-tapping screw method. It was well lubed, but the shellholder sheared off the rim when I tried to pull down the ram.

When mine get stuck it is usually on the internal sizing pin. I use lee dies, just loosen the pin and drive it out. Then use a dremel to weaken the case where it is tight, and put it in a vice and pull it out. Like most things in life, lots of lube helps.
