[QUOTE="BountyHunter, post: 1189880, member: 12"] Word of caution: Any cleaning that totally removes all carbon tends to leave the necks "too clean" and you often get inconsistent seating pressure and depth. Now it is hard to tell sometimes with a standard seating die, but real easy with an arbor press and inline die. Use a powdered graphite powder inside the necks. Several are available. I tried the steel pins method and ran into this right off. I use a 21st century arbor press with liquid dial indicator to measure exactly the seating force and it became apparent I had an issue. The graphite cures that. That is for my competition guns. For regular hunting rifles, simply run a plastic neck brush in a couple times and load.
