    Replacement parts for 6.6x55 Hornady resizing die

    I've got a 6.5x55 hornady die from @Nibblet which appears to have had the decapping pin broken.

    What part is needed to fix it? Are there expanding balls in them?

    Cheers

    I think I have a spare decapping pin here, should have an expander ball with the decapping pin just clamped in it, if it's just the pin broken then it's an easy fix.
