these case dents look familiar???? caused by too much
case lube. some dies have a small hole to stop this, but the hole is not in the right place. i put the hole with a small thin worn out cutting wheel in the shoulder area.
no more over lube problems

Not to sound rude, but why not just use less lube and try not to get it on the shoulder? I wouldn't want to ruin my dies for something that is easily corrected.

welllllll the dies are not ruined. i wait till i have 200 or so
in my old cooking pot, sray a couple of good shots of
WD 40 to lube the cases, size , clean out the primmer pocket, wash in dish soap , dry on a cookie sheet in oven.
been doing this for 30 years. i would like carbide dies
for my rifles bt have never seen them. i just thought
it might help somebody. guess i was wrong.
cheers

Dillon makes them in some calibres. You still need to lube bottleneck rifle cases in carbides, I think the only benefit of them is that they last longer and don't squeak as much.
