    It was easy to get out. I’m still curious as to the why, but I’m guessing just a weak case. It was it’s first loading with me. But all my brass is from top brass.

    Yup, sooner or later it will happen again, or to someone you know, and you can be their hero. Last time it happened to me I couldn't find my 308 shell extractor and I ran around like an idiot trying a million other things. Eventually I just bought one off Amazon, and then of course I found several more in various places at my place.

    Board policy mandates I state that I shoot for BCM. I have also done work for 200 or so manufacturers within the firearm community. I am prior service, a full time LEO, firearm instructor, armorer, TL, martial arts instructor, and all around good guy.

    I also shoot and write for various publications. Let me know if you know cool secrets or have toys worthy of an article...

    Note to self... get one of these for each toolkit, plus several spares--all of this in EACH major caliber I have.

    I'll try to remember... you don't see much of ANYTHING for Grendel anymore, and this house is 5.56 & .45ACP. (Well, IF I can get the budget aligned before my FFL closes .450 SMC too, but that's really just a Magnum version of .45ACP.)

    Take home message:
    Case head separations happen, better have a plan.
    Reloads are for fun and sport, not life and death,
    Repeatedly using the same cases over and over is for tight chambered bolt guns and minimally resized gun specific ammo.
