[QUOTE="Pdvdh, post: 1386037, member: 4191"] Lubricating the chamber or exterior of a casing will increase the setback force applied to the bolt head. But I can assure you that the engineers that designed the action determining the structural design for their action did not include the cartridge casing as any offsetting factor in the design strength of their action. Otherwise the action manufacturer would include a warning that the chamber and cartridge casing must be cleaned and free of any and all lubrication. And how much sense does that make, when we all use lubricants on our firearms for wear and corrosion reduction/protection? It's a non-issue, of no consequence, in comparison to the end result when this cartridge was fired. [/QUOTE]
