Remove the pin out of the dies and when you are finished replace it.

josebd,

Just take the decapping assembly out of the resizing die and resize the cases.

josebd, that de-cap is also your neck sizing tool. Without it, your necks may be too small to allow the bullet to enter. If you are gonna do it right, you're gonna have to either de-cap or use a short(ened) de-cap pin. If you decide to de-cap, you oughta kill the primers first.

Try them in your gun. If they fit, load em up.

You might try removing the decapping pin by partially unscrewing the resizing button and then pulling the pin out. You can then adjust the decapping rod by raising it inside the die. That way you can still resize the inside of the case as you lower the shell holder without interfering with the primer. Or like was said, if they fit in your chamber, they probably were FL sized prior to being primed, and you are good to go.

If they fit, as said prior they have already been sized. Load powder and bullet and go to it.
