i got a question for you reloading types

i am reloading for a 375 h&h the dies are hornady custom grade carbide and have been fully cleaned of all oil and grease.

when i size unfired remington brass i have no problems how ever once i have fired the brass i have a different situtation

i lube the cases not to much just enough to give the case i nice slick finish.

i put the case into the shell holder and start the case into the die i dont feel any resistance what so ever till the case is almost completely in the die maybe 1/2" left to go i press the case into the die up to the belt on the case no farther
i then extract the case

this is where i notice the problem just above the shoulder is a ring about 1/8th wide and gose entirely around the neck of the case the bump is not huge but is defintly noticeable

remember i do not have this problem with virgin unfired brass but after fireing thats when the problem occers dose any 1 here know what may be happening

i have thought about the lub i am using (dillion case lube non aresol)maybe its crap stuff i am going to throw it out in favor of something else because i am not really fond of the stuff anyways i think ill try some of thestuff strieght from hornady.

That dont sound like a lube problem It sounds like you are only partialy sizing the neck. Try screwing the die deeper into the press 1/2 turn at a time add see if that ring doesn't move down twards the shoulder. When it gets to where the neck meets the shoulder you have just neck sized your case To full length size follow the directions in the die set
Good luck!!
