[QUOTE="Mikecr, post: 2875095, member: 1521"] Alternate neck lube making a difference is not a good sign. It means you're pushing the bullet a bit with release, which implies excessive tension. Ideally bullets would release cleanly without munging up optimum CBTO as set. So, you could & should get similar result by simply lowering neck tension, and a quick brush through of necks is always a good idea. But a light carbon layer IS the perfect lube. Aside from logic, my basis is coating of bullets with WS2, the slipperiest of dry lubes. I leave a single brush of carbon layer in necks. My interference is purely within spring back range for ~1/2 neck length. With this, I can switch from lubed or bare bullets with zero affect to MVs. That's a good place to be for load development.
