Today's Lesson: Pay Attention

[joelogic]

These pieces of .223 were handed sorted because there was about 2% berdan primed stuff mixed in. Even with the hand sorting I almost had a terrible day.

If your brain needs a break, take one. We are not robots.

I was coming down in the stroke to decap and the pin ran into something way too early in the stroke so my brain snapped back and when I looked there was something weird stuck in the case. I will let the photos explain the rest.





Lucky the decapping pin wasn't off center and ignited the .22

And I thought it was bad when I get a 40 S&W case stuck in a 45 ACP case.
