Yes the Lee dies have an expander part on the decap rod.
Thats why I asked if it starts out OK and then gets harder to shift as it goes over the expander part.
Personally I'd get some other lube as that sounds like redding neck lube which is not for FL resizing.

Re: 303 FL Sizing
Were do you get your Hornady Unique from.Personally I don't like dry lubes for sizing, Imperial is very good and I've used it for years and still do but have found Hornady Unique to be as good and a lot cheaper.

Re: 303 FL Sizing
We are chugging along now. Have only prepped 50 cases and am just charging them now. Running them to a consistent length and have lightly crimped them, run them through the magazine and chambered them with no problems. A low load of 40gr of N140 so we'll see what happens tomorrow.
Pistol rounds are a doddle compared to this rifle malarky!

Hope you have fun,i believe it's meant to be windy and raining tomorrow.I was going to be popping down to buddon but considering the weather and the fact i'd only be bringing the .22 to reduce stocks of unwanted ammo i've decided not to bother.
Re: 303 FL Sizing
What .303 is it Mike?

No4 Mk II Regulated. It will be my first time out with it as it replaced the No5. As Mr. Smith says the weather forecast is awful!
