and you don't get lube dents?
I don't know what those are. Maybe I am but I don't know what they look like (still new to reloading). I have reloaded .223 and 30-30 using ATF and the cases looked fine after reloading and shooting.
Looking over my post the description was a little unclear. What I do is keep a small jar filled with tranny fluid. When it is time to decap/resize I dip the case in the jar of tranny fluid and proceed to decap/resize. Enough tranny fluid remains on the inside of the die and resizing pin so that I only have to dip every other or every 3rd case. I am using a single stage press so if I feel what seems to be too much resistance I back off and dip the case.
The process is kind of messy I end up having to wipe lube off of the press and resizing die/decapping pin. Also lube ends up in the reloading block. So I have a block specially set aside just for holding cases lubed and resized using the tranny fluid. Also as I mentioned previously I run the cases through the tumbler a second time to remove the tranny fluid. But you need to be careful to check each case to make sure there is no media stuck to the inside of the case.
It sounds like it is more effort than it is worth and maybe it is I am still experimenting with the process.
