Can this product be used on other parts of your gun, or are you just recommending it for brass sizing?
Just curious, but have you sized nickel plated brass in the past.K22 said:Many thanks to all for your suggestions. Sounds like a lot of guys are using the Imperial Wax so I may give that a try first.
Just to clarify my orginal problem, it was the outside of the necks that were being galled (shallow longituduial grooves being cut into the outside of the neck around the circumference). As I stated previously, the RCBS Rep claimed the problem was due to brass particles being embedded into the neck portion of the die and he said the prevention was so lube the outside of the necks.

I'm surprised no one has mentioned Lee Resizing Lube. Water soluble and a tiny amount goes a long way. I coat my fingers with a dab and roll the case. I can get about a dozen cases for a pea size dab of lube and it takes me maybe 5 minutes to coat 50 cases. Wipes right off. Dunno if it cleans carbon like Ballistol does, but then again, I don't need it to since my cases are cleaned by that point anyhow.
