    Next try and remove synthetic engine oil from your cases.... Petrol / hexane / whatever will get it off but life should be easier than that!

    Dillon / Lyman / Probably any of the spray lubes into a plastic bag with your cases, leave them to evaporate for a few minutes before sizing = the end of ALL your worries

    A quick soak in white spirits cleans them up nicely.
    While they're soaking I prime another batch I've done previously.
    I've always got 1 batch ahead in each sequence so I always have something to do.
