The dead cap can be removed with a punch and base set, neck sizing or full length sizing. Remember to clean the barrel as it will be dirty.

    Thanks for the reply. I live in town, how loud is it? I annealed before sizing last time. is it best to full length resize again? the neck tension is my main concern. im not worried about the last few kernel's any more. the pulled bullets have essentially expanding the neck. It weather they bass has consistently sprung back. Reloading is rewarding and frustrating.
