lee deluxe rifle dies no lube?

[edsmith]

I was looking at the lee deluxe rifle die sets, and it states no lube, do they mean no lube on the sizer die? I did not think there was such an animal.not in rifle dies.

If the Deluxe die set has the collet sizer in it then that's right there is no lube needed. I believe there is also a full length sizing die in the set and you will need lube for this die. Which set?

the 90614 308w. I see now why no lube,just neck sizes with a collet. thanks

I agree with Edsmith and RobS.........

The deluxe set comes with three tools, instead of the usual two:
1) Regular full length sizing die, which requires lube
2) Neck ONLY sizing die. Requires that you are sizing brass fired in YOUR gun, and used a segmented collet to size ONLY the neck (so it will hold onto the bullet) Since it;s only squeezing the neck, it requires no lube. You can't use this on any semi-auto guns, you'll have feeding problems. Bolt action only. You still have to trim to length (or at least check length)
3) The bullet seating/crimping die
