If you decide to go with something else, I can recommend this.

Ive been running g these for years in the rcbs Universal decapper. They work fine with Lapua small flash holes.

Sorry for the delay. The RCBS #9633 headed pins are listed at 0.057", but measure 0.055" These fit in an RCBS #87580 decap die.
These don't appear to be in stock at most placec, but I found them at Graffs https://www.grafs.com/retail/catalog/product/productId/120970

Why not just spin the fat pin in a drill with some sandpaper?

Do yourself a favor and get a might armory recapping die. He sells both size pins

Ya that's crazy. I don't see those listed anywhere on RCBS site. And according to them, they don't even make them. Very weird...But thanks for sharing! If that 6 ppc decap rod doesn't work, I'll have to order some. $30 though after shipping for 10 of them! Almost might be worth it to just get a whole new decap die setup for those small flash holes at that price...

I ordered them directly from RCBS in Dec 2024

Those are not the headed type that works with the decap rod in the universal decap die.

Yes, you are correct. My mistake. I needed some for my 308 dies so these will work for my purposes.

Update: Bought a new LEE Decap die with the undersize flash hole pin for like $18 on ebay. Works perfect!

I just put the decapping pins in an electric drill and spin them against a fine belt grinder. One of my favorite mods is to put a little taper on the pin. I've even used music wire in a pinch that I spun to the right size.

My rcbs decapping die decaps lapua 223 brass not problem as well as starline small primer 308 and large primer brass.

My RCBS does the lapua 223 brass also, but that's not the xsmall flash hole like what the 6 BR has.

I have both the large and small Lee decapping dies. They work perfectly and they're inexpensive!

Looking at my RCBS decapping die box, it is a 22-25 cal decaping die. I've been using it on 6.5 creed.oor and 308 for a long time with no issues
