[QUOTE="Deleted member 107796, post: 2138553"] Similar but slightly different from Marchboom: 1) Very lightly lube case and then resize/decap. You will feel a difference in resizing tension with or without lube. I suggest lubing VERY lightly including case mouth. 2) I use standard vibratory cleaner with corn cob media and tumble overnight. I add cleaning compound to the media every 3 tumbles or so and change the media after maybe 5-6 tumbles. 3) If the cases need trimming, I do that at this point, then chamfer inside and outside, lightly. After trimming, I use the a Lyman powered tool for primer cup cleaning/uniforming. 4) Cleaning time, before priming: Many use ultrasonics, I use a simple bath in 91% isopropyl alcohol for about 10 mins using some shaking action, then dry completely. 5) Prime, charge, seat, then shoot.
