Thread: Bry Lubricating necks when seating

On wet tumbling, i prefer to do that straight after depriming. Less chance of the pins getting stuck later

I leave the trace amount of mica dust in the necks after mandrel die expanding. That gives me a consistant seating feel. I dont reckon its a good idea to be liberally coating inside necks with a q-tip. That could put a variable amount of lube down the barrel which would be difficult to control no? Over 40shots, is mv now faster towards the end? How healthy is mica down the bore anyway?

I outside turned this batch before last firing. No annealing. It was all medium effort mandrel expanding but the seating effort all felt mild / same. No tight or loose seatings.
