[QUOTE="amork, post: 2569734, member: 85398"] so recently I started using an expanding mandrel on new cases to uniform necks prior to the first firing. I’ve done it on once fired brass before but I guess I hadn’t actually did it on new cases till last night. I had 200 new lapua .260 cases I was going to run through the mandrel but had to stop because I was struggling with what I thought was having to use to much force to size them. I had used imperial dry neck lube on them but it seemed like the graphite wouldn’t stick to the inside of the new cases. I probably ran 10 of them through the mandrel before I stopped. Has anyone ran into this? I watched videos of people following the same process and didn’t seem to have issues. I don’t want to mess this brass up so figured I’d ask around before proceeding.
