do dies wear out


Recommended Posts

i aquired a set of lee dies second hand

cases resized with the full length die are hard chamber, if i back off the die it damages the neck,the pin inside looks to be slightly curved and has marks where the collet grips it ,is it nackered or am i doing something wrong?

thanks for your help mark and fister, the larger pin that actually stretches the case is the one i am concerned about not the one that knocks the primer out.

when the cases have been resized the bolt on the rifle is hard to close ie the case is to large, i have tried adjusting the die but it is either as above or it damages the neck of the case, shoud i buy a new resizing die?
