Don't do this

[joken]

I was sizing and priming some brass yesterday and got called away. I left the handle down on the press with a .270 case in the die. went out to the shop this morning and boy is it ever stuck. RCBS case lube if you're curious, not that it probably matters.

Can you apply some heat to help loosen the die?

I can pull it out if I can remember where I put my puller rigging. I've never had a need to do that, but I'll keep that in mind if it doesn't want to move.

This is what I mentioned on another thread, getting distracted can yield bad results. Hopefully it will come ot without destroying the die.

I had to bore and tap a 1/4-20 and broke the bolt pulling on it. I put pressure on it with my extractor again and soaked it in kroil overnight. I thought sure it would strip, but it went pop and came out. I was happy because they were almost new Redding dies
