[QUOTE="Hugnot, post: 2284161, member: 115658"] Back to the future, like 10 years. Lubing the insides of necks with cold graphite might make for easier bullet seating. On the OAL measurements, taking the measurement at the ogive to the base of the case would provide more uniform distances from ogive to leade but a measurement to allow pointy bullet rounds to fit inside magazine would be separate. Graphite is a form of carbon, it has lubricating qualities but is not stable at high temps and loses lubrication qualities when hot and has been shown to corrode stainless steel after chemical alteration. I use graphite free 3-IN-ONE lock dry lube applied with a Q tip. [/QUOTE]
