[QUOTE="Barrelnut, post: 1526879, member: 74902"] I always wondered about this too. But have come to the conclusion that it doesn't really bother anything. I think most it is gets blown down the barrel or something. And it might make a difference after 20 loads or so, but who gets that case life? Main issue for me is just dealing with dirty brass in general. I wipe it off with a cloth when cleaning the pockets. I also twist the necks in a piece of 0000 steel wool to knock off any carbon on the outside of the neck. I even anneal the necks after every firing now, with the carbon in the neck! I shot a 5 or 6 shot string today with a SD of 2. So I have stuck with it. I do run a nylon brush thru the dirty neck after I clean the outside. I swear though, it is faster for me than cleaning it.
