Abstract

A die for performing multiple operations on a cartridge case in a single operative stroke of a reloading press. The die will uniformly coat the exterior of the case with lubricant, eject the spent primer, resize the exterior of the case, wipe and lightly lubricate the neck interior and resize the neck interior in one operation. The die has an insert that is replaceable and interchangeable with another to accommodate different calibers. A reservoir supplies and uniformly distributes lubricant to a lubricating pad in the entry of the die.
