I send them in to the factory....that is why I have several sets of dies in my favorite calibers.
If I do it myself, I do the caveman Fred Flintstone way of doing it...
I keep decapping rods, that have had the ends broke off... after pulling out what I can get out of the die and case...
if not, I just use the one that its stuck on...
slowly smack that down with a small sledge hammer and knock the case out..
toss it and call RCBS to send me a new one... or pay a couple of bucks to have Lee send me a new one...
See the Fred Flintstone way of doing it...Caveman style...
the above teaches ya to keep your dies internals clean and lubed...
and also make sure your brass is lubed...I make sure I use synthetic oil lube.. Amzoil spray lube. applied in a camping frying pan.. and shake it like we did Jiffy Pop when we were young...
I'm self taught, and it shows in my crude neanderthal ways...but I do seem to produce fairly accurate ammo tho. or at least my rifles shoot them well..

I use the RCBS stuck shell remover.
I use the sprays for large batches of 223 and 308 cases.
But for small lost like 100-200 or forming cases i have used the imperial case lube. It does happen sometimes.It has paid for itself many times over.
