Hey All -
I have been reloading the same brass for quite a while now, and though I run it through a tumbler to clean the brass (and it sure is sparkling), the case neck is getting a larger, dirty ring of soot (yes, I clean my rifle). I assume it's being caused by a small amount of lube that was left from sizing, which is keeping the case neck from getting a solid seal when the round is discharged? How do you guys clean the necks of the cases? Alcohol? Hopps? I was sitting there last night looking at all kinds of things I could clean them with... thoughts?:huh:
Thanks
Bobby
