[QUOTE="Barrelnut, post: 1494828, member: 74902"] Well, I continue to use dry lube. I even brush it inside the necks with a nylon brush after I sonic clean cases so that the expander works easier and bullets seat easier. I just clean my dies a little more often. Seems it was about 3~400 rounds before I start seeing the buildup on my dies too. Carbon is hard and seems like once it builds up, it starts scratching the necks like that. The problem might also be the carbon imbedding in copper stuck to the wall inside of the die as 243winxb suggest. A copper cleaner like Butches Bore Shine or Sweets might clean the die too. Think I will try that first next time I notice buildup to see if it fixes it. [/QUOTE]
