its been a while since i ran the 40sw dies as i load up a thousand in each caliber before i change out. started reloading some 40 and when it went to the factory crimp die, i couldnt get the case in without a lot of force. took it out and looked at it, no problems inside but decided to take it appart and clean it. its now cleaned and still have issues. is it time for a new die?
onto hornady: i kept having binding issues some where along the line so i took everything apart and cleaned it pretty well. after a few more rounds it got stuck again. only this time i couldnt get things to budge. i moved the press down then heard a snap. the left tooth and spins the plate carrer snapped off. so much for reloading tonight. wrote hornady an email so well see how it goes.
