Didn’t think I would ever do it, tonight it happened!
Here’s the story: 6X47 Lapua Forster FL die and before using it this session I decided to clean it. Didn’t take it apart, blasted it real good with Gun Scrubber and then hit it with WD Specialist as a lubricant. I thought the oil had plenty of time to drain and evaporate out. Did case as usual, dipped neck in dry Imperial lube and rubbed regular Imperial wax on body. Went in way to stubborn, popped case rim trying to come back. What’s the verdict, to much oil in die?
Thankfully I have taken you guys advice and had a Forster stuck case remover on hand. Worked like a charm by the way! This TIME I used Hoppes 9 to clean die and dry patched it out, things went back to normal then. Live and learn!
