Lapua 6.5 CR decapping?

[WinJim1863]

Just got my first 200 Lapua cases. I know they are small primer and have a small flash hole. I have RCBS and Lee decapping dies. RCBS offers a 22-27 decapping pin but I am not sure that will work with a small flash hole. Do Lee and RCBS offer rods or pins for small flash holes? If not who makes a decaying (damn spell check) die for Lapua?

Thanks, JimB

RCBS yes, Lee no

Im pretty sure the Hornady dies are also a small pin.

I have a Sinclair Decapping Die. If I recall it came with both sizes of pins and takes the hornady style pins as replacements. I really like it and have never had an issue. I pretty much run the small pin in it and decap everything.

I use the Lee decapping die and dont have any issues.

Just take the decapping pin, chuck it in a drill and run it against sandpaper to thin it out.

This, but use a hand file instead of sandpaper. Way faster. Have done it on all my Lee Universal decapping dies for small primer Lapua brass.

Just buy a mighty armory die and be done with it.
