You can wet tumble or use an ultrasonic cleaner that removes all the carbon from the case neck.
Then all you need to do is dip the case neck in powdered graphite (carbon) and a expander will smear a fresh coat of carbon inside the case neck.
And if you notice the directions with Hornady One Shot tells you to make sure you spray the inside of the case neck. Meaning get the dry film lube inside the case neck.

If you don't like powdered graphite you can spray Hornady One Shot inside the case neck like the Army Marksmanship Unit does.
The best part about reloading is the person pulling the press handle decides how to do it. And the OP found his problem! If you wet tumble you should trim and deburr the cases every time to remove the case mouth peening.

Uncle Ed Nailed it the culprit was burrs inside and outside of the casses
Well no more tumbling, have bought a ultrasonic cleaner, I have never had this problem before but there is always a first time.
Thanks for all the input.
I learned a lot.
