[QUOTE="DSheetz, post: 1882505, member: 91783"] A little study on the subject goes a long way as long as it's good info . Metallurgy is a complex subject heat treating is a very complex subject . Ferrous metals are treated differently then non-ferrous metals . Most of your non-ferrous metals need to be quenched to make them softer as they harden some when air cooled . Cleaning and lubing the brass also helps . Cleaning the inside of the case neck and lubing it also helps as the OP discovered . All the years of experience represented on this site by individuals with differing back grounds thus having differing ways to get to the same end results keeps these threads interesting . [/QUOTE]
