Just wanted to clarify this.. If I'm making say, 200 rounds in a session, I would put lube on maybe 5-10 cases and the purpose of that is to lube the dies?
• For bottleneck rifle, every case needs to be lubed.
• For straight-walled handgun, I roll about 5 or 6 at a time on the pad... And then I'd insert those into the Sizing stream about every 3rd case. Or, it's it's easier, let your Lube Pad get really dried out and roll 100%. The point is, it takes very little to make a huge difference.
• For bottleneck handgun, I treat them more like rifle.
Never saw the need to lube pistol cases , rifle cases we use the cheapest store brand cooking spray.
That is as long as your using carbide dies with the pistol cases.
