    In order to re-size and de-cap it is recommended that the inside of the neck be lubed, are you cleaning the case neck before moving on? Is the lube in the neck not enough to cause a problem? How do you do it?
    I stand up 100+ cases in a plastic container and spray the cheap bastard lube from 2 different directions at a 45 degree angle to get some lube in the necks, then shake them while spritzing a couple more times to get lube on the bodies.

    Before I read this thread http://www.calguns.net/calgunforum/s...4#post14875884 (post 20 on) I just wiped off the outside of the cases on an old tee shirt to get the bulk of the lube off and never bothered with the lube in the neck. Never had any problems because of a little spray lube in the neck.

    Now after reading post 20 in that thread I tumble all my lubed cases after resizing. It adds one extra step but I don't have to worry about the "what if" case lube is ad bad as oil on a cartridge.

    Also, because I tumble in walnut I use a universal decapping die in station 1 to make sure flash holes are clear of media before priming in station 2.
