    when you run a progressive you size and go immediately to case mouth belling and powder charging.
    you would have to be running single stage to tumble your cases after resizing to remove the lube or am I missing something?



    for me, I just load them up as normal and when I do my final visual inspection before putting the rounds into a tray for storage/range, I just give them a quick wipe with a micro fiber towel. I have also just dumped them onto a dish towel and rolled them all at once to remove the excess lube.


    New to me brass gets the single stage treatment with trimming ans such.
    Once I've fired my reloads, they go through the progressive. Tumble, spray, load.

    Do you clean both before and after, or only after?

    I do the ultrasonic as well. I'm no ammo pretty-boy!
    No, I don't clean them twice. I said that wrong. I de-prime, clean (ultrasonic), trim (and de-burr) if necessary, lube with One Shot, re-size, (flair if necessary), drop powder, and load bullets. I don't care about the lube that may be left on the cases.

    I tumble post load with corn cob to just knock off the lube. I don't like them to be to slick, they jump out of the magazine ;)
