Re: Case stuck in lee sizing/depriming die.. now what?
No, not yet. I'm ordering a case-unstucking kit similar to the one described or going to dome hepot to find the parts needed. I did try hammering out the case with a punch, but that didn't work. I did consider maybe using some wd-40 and then hammering it, but do I want that wd-40 gunk-ing up the die? How would I go about cleaning off the lube?
I do plan on getting some imperial wax next week.

Re: Case stuck in lee sizing/depriming die.. now what?
I'd suggest soaking the wwhole die and case in some sort of penetrating oil (a lot of folks swear by KROIL) an let that help loosen the case. When it is out, you can clean the die with anything, practically. Dishwater, denatured alcohol, kerosene, paint thinner, virtually anything.. I'd look to see if the inside has some sort of defect, and if it didn't, I'd prob polish it a bit anyway.
Good luck,
