Primer pocket cleaning

Since 1977, i have religiously cleaned primer pockets on both rifle & handgun metallic cases. However, on rifle cases, i do a "match-prep" on the primer pocket. This prep only has to be done once, for the life of the case:

1. Ream & chamfer the flash hole
2. Ream the "id"
3. Cut the depth of & square the bottom

as far as cleaning the pocket is concerned, i do it every time the case is reloaded---no exceptions !!!
