Good grief, I've never seen such a scientific approach to resizing some darn brass.

I've reloaded a thousand or more for my M1 using many different headstamps. Lee FL die set.

1. Throw cases in the tumbler for two hours.
2. Smear some Hornady Unique sizing lube on the case body and inside the neck, NOT on the shoulder. Use your fingers.
3. Trim to length, buzz off primer crimp, chamfer case mouth.

I tried some of those case sprays, they didn't work worth a flip. One case almost got stuck. The silicone grease consistency of Unique makes the case practically fall out of the die, and to further my point I use a Lee Hand Press to do it.
