What are you using to deprime cheytac brass?

I have scoured the interent and the forum. Mightyarmory isnt making the big boy decap die anymore.

I Want something that goes in the press preferably.

Thanks.
 
If you can’t find a die that can deprime, use this:

I used it recently to deprive some .408 cases

CH4D might be able to make you something.

Sucks that Mighty Armory stopped making that die.

If all else fails and you have Whidden Dies. Take off the expander ball and screw the decapper assembly all the way down. Then you can deprime without sizing

Depriming so i can stainless tumble.
Otherwise water gets stuck under the primer. Also the primer pocket gets cleaned.

Could be anal about it. But it works better when I dry the brass in the dehydrator if the primers are out.

Also dont like my sizing die to get filthy as fuck, and I anneal before resizing.

Had a pair of dies made at the machine shop.

I have no idea, but i anneal after tumbling, and then resize.

And before powder and seating a bullet, run a case neck brush on the cordless drill at high speed.

Thats the most obvious differance of all over the radar. So id say the other step help keep neck friction low. Or just right.
