Thread: Reloading. 270

drop your dies in some petrol for 10 minutes and put cotton bud inside to clean out rest of gunk...or spray crc etc inside to clean out built up lube...when applying lube...case body ONLY.... wee jar lid with powdered graphite and shot to dip necks in and you wont see the issue again...its not a huge deal for hunting loads but not ideal and something you want to avoid in future.

your graphite and shot for dipping necks is the best reloading tip I've heard in over a year. I will set up my own this weekend! Awesome, thanks!

Lead shot or steel shot? This sounds like a brilliant idea

I've been using steel without issue for about a year, just need to be sure none stays in the case but that's not hard, I also put a bit of scotch bright in the bottom of my canister dunno if it helps hold the graphite or not but it doesn't hurt. I just give it a bit of a shake before using it.
