dirtydawk Posted October 22, 2009 Report Share Posted October 22, 2009 (edited) Hi guys, I've just managed to mangle my Hornady Expander/decap die! I have snapped the decapping pin, bent the zip spindle and split the expander. Does anyone know where I can order replacement parts online? Or failing that a dealer who stocks the spare parts?

lineshooter Posted October 22, 2009 Report Share Posted October 22, 2009 I had this happen to a RCBS die, a 22 case had got into a 308 one, dont ask how. I emailed RCBS and they sent a new decapper in the post, try sending an email to them. Good Luck Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Didnt forget to lube did you or try to decap a berdan primed case ?Harnser . I didn't do anything really. Resized a case and the pin bent, straightened it, resized another and it snapped! Brand new Hornady dies as well! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
