[QUOTE="MagnumManiac, post: 2157886, member: 10755"] I have the ceramic balls dosed with graphite, works well, but I hate having black case necks on the outside of the necks...so now I dip a nylon brush that is cal specific in the graphite and brush the inside of the necks prior to sizing and prior to using the mandrel. I get zero bullet weld doing this. This helps with smooth and uniform neck tension and can lower ES/SD numbers on tuned loads if you test with/without graphite being present. This is a process I do on ALL of my brass, even my 44 mag lever ammo. (No mandrel work though. Lol.) Cheers. [/QUOTE]
