As I was happily depriming, full sizing a few 30-30 brass with a RCBS die, all of a sudden I saw a case that had not been deprimed. Whoa, stopped everything , searched and found another one non-deprimed. Found the decapping pin/nut missing. It was probably in that second one. Well I began to look everywhere on the bench and on the floor. Couldn't find it. A few days later as I was inspecting all the brass, there it was in the case and I thought it was some kind of nut. Got a long 8/32 screw and turned it into the "nut" as far as it would go, stuck it in the press and ran it up all the way up without a die installed. The screw protruded about 1/2 inch. Put a plate with a "v" under the screw head and pulled it out of the case. Yep there was the lost broken decapping neck expanding nut without the pin . It does pay to check every case visually with a strong light.
The fired primer was the best clue. There was no way to deprime that one. Didn't find the broken pin.
