Cleaning Dies - How Often?

[pennstater]

Pipe cleaners. They can get to where a Q-tip cannot. Works great for cleaning gas ports on S/A shotguns also.

Not very often and only when caked stuff is found in my die. I'd say every 6 years.

Clean them?

Mine get cleaned after use - from 10 to 400 loads .
Take apart and into sonic .
Seems Like a waste of time to a lot of you , but I have 6 nephews and 2 nisces that reload here . if they are apart , they have to set up for whatever powder and bullet they are using . [ plus a couple of friends ]
