Mica as a case lube for resizing?

[Jasper1573]

Gentleman,

I have searched the reloading section for info on using the mica dry lube when resizing cases, but found little information.

Does anyone use "only" mica as a case lube when resizing bottleneck rifle cases?

It seems to me that a dry lube would be better than a wet lube, but not sure if there are disadvantages I am missing.

Also, there was a mention of using graphite as a case lube in one of the threads I read...anyone use graphite?

Not unless you wish a stuck case.

Its used as a lube for the inside of the neck.
