If your getting excess on the outside of the neck that would be your problem , it just take a very thin film on the neck and inside

Will do!! Thanks.
Are these safe to shoot?

Yes. They will pop right back out after you fire them.

If you are worried about resized brass sticking inside the neck or pulling too hard....putting a thin amount of slick'em(whatever you use) on the first case then maybe your tenth is plenty usually to let things work......anything outside the case mouth goes straight into the neck sized and pushes into the vent.....and in this case(exactly) looks like the culprit...

Too much, obviously! I also was using a 30 caliber brush to lube in inside case neck and not being careful to remove the excess. Could that cause the denting of the case shoulder?

Refrain from what you're doing and start fresh. BTW, your reloading manual should also say how to lube. You do have a reloading manual right?

This will be your best friend. I have mostly Redding does that do not have a pin hole for extra lube to pass through. I use this on the necks and to the shoulders of my brass and then lube the body for FL sizing.

Thanks. I'm going to give the Imperial case lube products a try.

I think you will like it. A plus of it too is that it lines the inside of the necks as well..

If your shoulders are dimpled do t be afraid to shoot a load through them as they will fire form back out once a charge is sent through them.
