case neck lube issue

[Texas Solo]

By the way...
What kind of dies are we talking about?

Lyman has a pretty nice neck sizing set up with a free floating carbide ball.

Die is a new RCBS SB 308. I'm also considering the Lyman carbide decapping assembly, which fits the RCBS dies. I'm sure it's a lube issue, and my spray lube just isn't getting it done.
I think I'll try the Q-Tip method with some RCBS lube I have lying around. We'll see.
Thanks for the replies.

Texas Solo, hi. I reload a lot of different bottleneck ctgs. I really like the Imperial dry method. I like a little Dillon spray on the outside, when fl sizing, it's just Alcohol/Lanolin....
Recently, I purchased the Lyman carbide decapper/expander for one ctg. I was so impressed, I bought one for each caliber. Not cheap, but STOS.... You'll love it.

i use a seperate cheap little lyman press with a decapping die for removing primers.
the one die fits all cartridges up to and including 378 weatherbys. that way i can remove
the decapping pins from all my dies and all the primer dirt is kept out of the dies.
i use a very small amount of imperial on my thumb and a few fingers and scrape a small amount onto
the neck opening. i have used rcbs lube and the sprays which i feel are inferior to imperial wax.
