Help out an idiot, please. I haven't reloaded in about 15 years. Back then I was still using RCBS case lube, the kind that comes in a tube like a tube of toothpaste. You know the drill - squeeze it onto the pad, rub the lube all over the pad, and roll your cases in it before they go into the resizing die. So now I have this spray lube. Whats the deal with using this? Does most of the cartridge case have to be coated with the lube? Was thinking about putting them in a flat tray on newspaper, spray them, roll them around, and spray again. Sound reasonable or stupid? And does this stuff ruin the powder charge if it gets inside the neck? Does it have to wiped off the case before firing? And if it makes any difference, loading for .243 Win and 7 X 57 Mauser, cases that headspace on the shoulder. Thank you.
