To dry lube or not? That’s the question!

[QUOTE="Baboltin, post: 2307083, member: 102081"] So I have gone through the process in this order of reloading my 7 mag 1)Deprime brass 2)Clean brass in tumbler with turbo tumbler media 3)inspect brass/wipe off with a rag by hand 4)measure OA of brass -Question- Which leads me to a question my Barnes handbook says 2.50 case length then below that says trim length 2.49. So I would go to imagine if I am understanding this correctly if I have my brass between 2.49 and 2.50 I am fine and to not trim my brass. Is that a correct understanding of the manual? My 60 pieces of brass I’m reloading was from 2.482 up to 2.492 so I decided that I didn’t have the need to trim at this point. 5)resize without expander ball 6) mandrel resize the neck 7)remove case lube 8)chamfer and deburr 9)clean primer pockets 10) prime brass -Question- And then I stopped because I wanted to ask this other question should I dry lube the necks or not dry lube the necks at all before charging and seating the bullet?
