Great product
Was very happy with these pins!!! I have tried lots of different pins on crimped primers and these by far have worked the best!

Works well
I have used the lee decapping die fir awhile and have bent quite a few standard pins. I bought 6 of these and have only used one and it has not bent on me yet.

Perfect for crimped primer pockets
These beastly Squirrel Daddy pins are strong enough to pop out those crimped primers. Swap one of these out for your Lee/Lyman/RCBS/whatever and never fear the bent or broken pins again!

You really should try these, especially if you use Lee pins.
I should have used these long ago. Way better than Lee pins. I process a LOT of dirty 5.56 brass. You get a good feel when a primer is somewhat stuck. I got tired of the failsafe (having the pin give and readjust). I got tired of that so I tighten the pin down hard for more productive runs. As you know, you will bend or break pins if you do it that way.These pins are strong enough to plunge through about any normal definition of stuck. I love them and have not broke or bent the first pin I started with ( came with three). Freaking awesome! I did notice that the tip of the pin is a bit wider than a Lee pin. Seemed like it was a bit stiff hitting the pocket rim at first. I let it wear down and it became fine. Next time I switch pins I might polish or ever so slightly grind the tip point.Also. Sometimes I get a hold of the nastiest brass imaginable. I tumble those once for a short time before decaping. Well, you know what happens. You get the occasional media pin stuck in the case over the primer pocket. With a normal pin you can run into issues and have to remove the case to check if it's indeed a media pin block. With these Squirrel pins you can come down hard enough and get a good feel that its a pin, not a stuck primer. You know, its a feel. No matter how you look at it this adds to productivity and less bent pins. I will repost after another thousand or so. Let's so how much better these actually are. But they are better than Lee.

Replacement deprimer pin
Worked in my Frankford arsenal deprimer who does not sell replacement pins. Only complaint it gets stuck in some primer holes it’s tapered so I chucked it up in a drill and took a little off with a file works great now. But not the intended use so it still gets five stars.

diameter is about three hundred thousand smaller than lee decapping pin shaft
seem to work ok the diameter is smaller than the lee shaft which makes it very hard to get tight in the die

Better than factory
I had some lee decaping dies that would snap or bend on military brass, picked up these and it's like there's no primer in the pocket! Shoots em out like butter with no bend or break! Will update if they are short lived but loving them currently

I'm extremely happy I ordered these - although I'm not sure now ...
Busted my decapping pin on my universal decapping die one night, and bent a spare one immediately after. I know Lee presses are not well renowned for their quality, but I found this to be unacceptable. A tough primer, or tight primer pocket shouldn't be the death of a decapping die.I'm extremely happy I ordered these - although I'm not sure now that I needed a 3 pack. The first one has held up to nearly 1000 rounds of reloading so far and it is no worse for the wear. These decapping pins are definitely MUCH better quality than the standard Lee ones, and also LESS expensive (especially if you factor in durability). You can tell by the weight, and how the decaping pin is constructed (it's more like a pyramid than a pin) that these are much better quality than Lee OEM parts, and are likely not to break with standard use. My guess is you would have to work pretty hard to break these.10/10 - would highly recommend if you reload on a Lee press.
