[QUOTE="Otto6555, post: 2951440, member: 113950"] Like other have said get away from the spray lube and buy yourself some Imperial Sizing Wax it only takes enough to cover the skin on the pad of your index finger to lube a case sufficiently and I only lube every 3 rd case on something as small as 223 but every case on something as large as 30-06 and you can wipe the edge of the throat on the inside of the brass to give the epanding ball a little lubrication every 20 or so I’ve never seen it matter if you get some Sizing Wax inside the case .Can you tell me why you bought a Hornady press but Rcbs dies??? I have used almost every kind of die and press combo out there in the last 35 years but I find that Lee dies have no problems with build up inside the die and the have a wrench type nut for die adjustment and now have a new style locking nut but I still like the older version.I have some Rcbs dies but have replaced them all with Lee over the years. I just couldn't get past the knurled stems that most people use pliers to tighten them up and I just don't have any place on my reloading bench for Vice Grips or Channel lock pliers( just me nothing wrong with them) other than the marks you are seeing You are definitely ahead of the curve and I wouldn’t fret over a few thousands different in OAL if you were shooting a precision rifle in competitions then you would need to invest in a whole different set up like most competitors do.
