Thread: Tried something different.

I was watching one of Mark and Sam 4 AW youtube vids and he was explaining his reloading system. I was surprised when he demonstrated how he lubed his brass before sizing. He just gave lots of 5 cases a quick spray with crc or ballistol. Anyway today I was resizing some 308win brass on my old rcbs pad and the usual sticky lyman pad lube. Used that system for decades and never been happy especially with cleaning the lube off after sizing. Sooo, I thought well, I wll give the lube pad a little spray of crc 5-56 and see what happens.
Honestly sizing and later cleanup has never been as effortless. Very pleasantly surprised indeed, I thought it worth passing on.
I have also used Lee case lube and it is excellent but a bit slow just wiping it on with finger. I still use it on a cotton bud to lightly lube inside case necks before sizing; the Lee lube is very good. Anyway, thats what I found, for what its worth.
