i take a q-tip and then i put pure lanolin on it. the next step is to lube inside the 30/30 neck and when you are done, lube the outside of the 30/30 neck. you only need a little bit of pure lanolin to lube the case neck. then its to the reloading die, mine is 35/30 fl die.

You could always blow the cases out with a filler. Cream of wheat or grits. I used 7gns of unique, a 1/4 sheet of tissue paper, then a case full of grits, followed by another plug of tissue paper to form 375 cases from 30-30 brass. I used a punch and compressed the grits to get a more complete form of the brass.

That's what I did on my first batch. It's kind of a hassle and I have to drive out of town to do it. I want a way to make them in my basement without too much cost.

Yeah I used regular case lube in a tube I had. It worked fine. I just have to stick them in the case cleaner with dry corncob to get the lube off afterward. I guess the full length die probably has a similar expander in it as my neck sizer. Thanks for you input.
