Having a problem w/lapua brass

[jonbearman]

I have box of 6BR lapua brass and I bought it awhile back last year. Anyways it started loading my die up with brass so I cleaned it out,tryed again to full length size it ,same thing,buildup of brass in the die.I use die wax and pma lube for the expander.After expanding very few cases with the lube it left brass all over the expander. Mind you that it gets used for 6ppc and so on with no problems until this box of brass.It ruined 20 cases by not realizing it was galling the case body.I did pm Kevin Thomas ,but does anypne have a phone number or his email I guess.I am out of options at this point. I have never had this happen with lapua blue box brass but I guess there is always a first time.
