[QUOTE="Wachsmann, post: 1863109, member: 10429"] I had the same issue. Let the stuff dry for a couple of minutes before using or you will stick a case for sure. I did twice. I also have a 300 RUM. Large cases seem to be harder to get out of a die also since there is more surface area. I had to buy another die on the second stuck case. Also you need to use it inside the die when starting out but you have to let the stuff fully dry or it will stick the case. I have since went to the Hornady wax lube. Little bit on the dirty side cause you get it on your fingers but I have never had a problem with this stuff. I run my brass through the tumbler before sizing, after sizing and after trimming, (short time after trimming) so my brass is free from any lube and metal shavings from trimming and deburring. Also the dust from the tumbler acts as a friction reducer on the bullet seating so I dont get any hard seating bullets. I have also tried the water stainless pin cleaning which worked well but I started seeing a difference with the bullet seating (how much force it took to seat the bullets) One day I may start neck turning to try and reduce my ES but before that I want to get me a good case annealer and try that method first.
