something in the case

[gypsyman]

Seen this before, not real common. FL sizing .223/5.56 cases and can't tell what it is. Just did around 500 cases, and 2 of them looked like a piece of lead was in the case. Maybe a bullet turned upside down??? Happened a couple years ago, and I broke the decapping pin, and had to replace it.( Dillion carbide die) 1 is a LC-09 case, and the other is headstamped, A -USA  .223 Rem. Once fired, original primers, so not sure what or why. Anybody else ever see this??

I don't immediately recall experiencing anything
similar, but will say that unless it's something
that's very easily resolved without spending
money, or much more valuable irreplaceable time,
I'd smash it or squeeze it and toss it in with
the other scrap brass.

After my last battle with "once fired"/ " range pickup"
I said never again.
If I can't make it right with a regular loading die
set and the other obligatory tools, it gets scrapped.
Just my own opinion
