Thanks for the suggestions. Would like to get away from lubing the inside of the neck if at all possible. Even with using the lube (RCBS) its easier, but still seems to put too much stress on the case given the amount of leverage one can generate with the RCBS Rock Chucker. May try to polish the expander as suggested. Also can not believe the pressure it takes to seat the primer
in these Lapua brass, using Federal 215 primer. This Lapua brass maybe more
trouble than its worth. I could not find a neck brush to apply the lube but an
eraser on the end of a real wood pencil works great. I went ahead and used a
Q-Tip to clean the residue left inside the neck.
