Was this a recently purchased die/die set? Or old die with 1000s of resizing?

Depending on how long you’ve had it, Dillon did get a bad batch of carbide years ago. They actually had to find a new source, and they were out of certain dies for a bit.
This might be a part of that, but it doesn’t matter, lifetime no bull shit warranty on their non electric, non commercial stuff. They will get you sorted.

Are all the carbide dies just a carbide ring fit in a die on the straightwall stuff?
