been load a bunch of military brass the last couple weeks. some of it is more than a bit hard to size. So i started spraying breakfree (i get it by the gallon) on the cases. Believe it or not, there are very few lub dents, but the sizing got lots easier. After sizing i just stick them in a 5 gal pai of degreaser for an hour, dump them out and leave them dry.
Easiest way i've found to decrimp the primer pockets has been with a small rotary burr (round ended) in a drill press. Cuts the crip off just right and takes about a second a round
