KJE, Any case with a taper no matter how slight usually needs some case lube to resize. I have a set of 30 carbine dies in carbide but being that the case has a slight taper I usually lube every tenth case or so.
These dies still have the carbide insert ring. For a bottle neck rifle case, I know they make FULL carbide dies but they are expensive. You would probably still need to use some lube though I'm not 100% sure on this. I can look up a die Company I know of
and get some info for you if you want. Have you tried RCBS's Lube Die? This might cut down on the mess alittle when used with their WATER SOLUBLE lube. Then you can just wipe them with a damp cloth after their assembled with no oily residue like the older lubes.
