[QUOTE="Bullet bumper, post: 709083, member: 17844"] You don't need lube inside or outside the neck using a Lee collet die neck size die The only time it may be needed is with very soft annealed case necks that can sometimes cause some drag on the mandrel as you extract the case. Then use dry lubricants . Clean and polished is what you need . If excessive lube builds up on the mandrel inaccurate results will happen. A small amount will not do much harm but you don't want liquid lube inside your case necks as it can upset powder flow into the case . That is the whole idea of the Collet die to be able to size with no lube . You need lube for body sizing and full length sizing in that kind of die. Your results seem good so you must be getting good straight ammo from the dies. [/QUOTE]
