    @zimmer thanks, yes I have done the home brew neolube, i used Bunnings isopropyl that stays wet for a bit longer before flash off, but i think that the liquid was running the lube off into the tray. It did provide a small level of lubricity, but maybe not enough.
    I think the tension has gotten mixed up as i combined two brass lots, but most of this brass is well up on firings..... maybe 10 and 15.
    @charliehorse they have sprung back to about 0.3065 - 0.3060 from what I can tell (vernies in the neck) Still the odd one that feels tight when passed over the makeshift mandrel, but i cant determine a definitive measurement. When I seat a proper bullet in them i can cull the heavier seaters out.
    Probably 95% have been cured, but the proof will be in the elevation spread. I've either recovered some grouping or lost it completely
