Hi
I have been reloading for a couple of years but still learning; recently had an issue with one of my dies.
Anyone ever had the problem when, on a Redding FL die serie "S" (.338LM cal), the expander gets loose and the decapping rod bents?
I stopped when it felt like something was out of alignment but it was too late. Should have noticed it earlier; was probably too busy thinking about the next range session; as a results, got a bunch of messed up Lapua cases on which the neck is now more oval than round, not sure if I can salvage these.
Redding CS was helpful and they are sending a free new decapping rod; nevertheless, on the same email where I was explaining the issue, I asked them on how to prevent this kind of incident but did not get an answer.
Would anyone know how to prevent this?
Thanks
