I just deprimed 500 once fired Lake City 5.56 cases before wet tumbling. So having a universal depriming die comes in handy before cleaning cases. Especially if you have firearms that throw perfectly good brass away and make you go looking for it. Meaning clean brass after wet tumbling will not scratch your dies.
