Hornady Onepass Fail

[Rhino0427]

So, the other day I was trying to resize some once used 30-06 brass. I filled my reloading tray and sprayed all four sides with Onepass and a little over the top to get some lube inside. I put about 10 cases through the die (they all felt a little stiff, but nothing crazy) before one got stuck fast and I ripped off the rim trying to pull it out. I was suprised that the Onepass failed so badly. Has anyone else experienced this?

One pass or one shot? One shot sucks monkey balls. The rcbs spray lube rocks.

One Shot is good for sticking cases. Imperial is the goto product for your task!!

I use One Shot. Works perfect for me. Spray it on lightly and let it dry. Then load. If you dont let it dry, you will stick cases.

Hoser, while I respect your right to your opinion, and your reloading prowess, one shot stinks worse than this.

After I spent 45 min pulling a .308 case out of the die once I will never use one shot again. I have meant to try the Imperial but have just used the RCBS for the last 10 years or so.

Tried rcbs, still have some, but like the dillon spray , getting ready to make my own.

I thought it might be my regular lube in the die reacting with the one shot, So I donated my one shot to a buddy who began reloading and had brand new dies. Two hours later I get a phone call from my friend asking me if he needs to buy new dies or if there is a way to get the case out of the die. One shot is just the way for Hardy to sell more dies.

On the upside, I learned to make my own case removal tool with a socket, bolts, nuts, and tap and die set.

I have only every tried dillon lube and it is amazingly effective.

The formula for making your own (OP, not you jim as you already seem to know) is roughly a 1:4 ratio of hydrous lanolin (liquid lanolin) and 90% isopropyl alcohol. You can get a 4oz bottle of lanolin for around $6 at most drug stores (I know amazon has it for $6.30) and a 16oz bottle of 90% isopropyl for around $2-2.50. That's 20oz of good quality lube that will definitely last a long time!

And the skin on your hands will be as soft and supple as a..., well you guys with kids will know what else lanolin is good for.
