And let me tell you, what a PIA. I had a whole bunch of 223 I needed to get through and this happened on the 11th case. The worst part was I actually tried to resize this case twice. First time it felt way too tight so I took it out, looked it over , rolled it on the lube pad again and tried a second time. Well the second time it got jammed and locked right up.
I ended up having to construct a stuck case remover to get the darn thing out. I drilled out the primer pocket + flash hole and then used a tap to set a thread. Using a socket, 6mm allen screw and some washers, finally got the case out. It was so stuck that I actually tore the neck right off the case. I had to remove the decapping pin from the inside, get the top off the die and actually use a pick to get the neck out. Luckily the die was fine and only lost the decapping pin in the process.
I had a spare pin so I got through ~300 cases but boy did that set me back time wise. What a royal pain.
