Dillon 223 carbide resizing dies are the best thing since sex was invented.
Hornady One-Shot lube might as well be called JB weld.
I use it for lock tite. It works just like the blue kind. [ROFL2]
I just wielded my fender back on my trailer with one shot it works great.... Worst reloading product I have ever used still have a 30-06 case in my resizing die from a year ago I finally gave up and just ordered a new one

Been there , Done that ! Back to the lube pad for volume and Imperial Wax for the precision stuff
I'm glad I'm not the only one who hates it. But, if you drill a hole in the bottom of the case and use an appropriately sized tap and bolt, with a larger nut or many washers as a spacer, you can remove the case from the die without die damage.
I have a can that's 98% full if you need some more.

I've removed about a dozen stuck cases. 223 + One-Shot = Uh huh.

You hate me, don't you.[fudd]
Hmm. I have a case stuck in one of my dies right now. It happens to be lubed with One Shot. Coincidence?

I'm wheeling through town sat. you want to make use of a stuck case tool?
I tried the drill and bolt method it was so stuck I pulled the bottom of the case off that what gave me the idea to wield my fender on with it

Maybe. I haven't even tried to get it out yet. I'll probably try Friday. If I don't have any luck, I'll shoot you a PM.
Thanks.
Stuck case tools are nice, but I have a tap and die set that would still be new if I didn't use it for something.

So, this may very well be how it goes: swear, drill, pound, cut, heat, throw, buy a Dillon carbide 223 resizing die, cry over the price, relish in it's use after receiving it.
Just a guess...
Is Hornady run by Francisco d'Anconia?

So literary of you [ROFL2]
I think he should produce some copper remover.
Hornady One Shot + Dillon carbide 223/308 dies work plenty fine for me.
Must be the altitude difference.

Yep, every time I hear of a stuck case, Hornady One Shot was used.
Every time. Hornady is a good outfit otherwise, but that one product is the worst they've put out.

I've used the stuff a few times, and the first couple of times, it didn't work worth a jack. Last two times, I went very feinstein on them(liberally spraying cases), and it did a decent job. Cant be stingy with the stuff, thats for sure.
You hate me, don't you.[fudd]
Nope, just marveling that you've had 12 stuck cases. Going for the record? [Coffee]
I must be doing it wrong.
It works fine for me. I even use it on pistol brass just to make it resize easier.

Lookit, Hoser! Something else we agree on (something strange happening here - first Varget, now this!).
One Shot works for me in regular steel dies, let alone carbide. Never had a stuck case using it.
You guys must really know how to spread on the lube.

ive been reloading for a long damn time. I experiment too much. I listen too little. I ski uphill. I'm too damn lazy to get differed stuff when I have a can of crap sitting there. It was Obama's fault. My wife made me do it. Wasn't me. It's true it's true.

One word (well, maybe two): NECK SIZING.
No lube needed.
Got two ar's same brand, chamber dimensions are minimal.
Now, as far as alternative uses of leftover case lube...
