I don't lube my case necks for seating as it would be very difficult with powder in the cases if you did it post weighing your charges in and if you did it before the powder would stick to it

I have used this method in my brass for quite a while and never had any issues. What makes graphite bad for annealed cases ?

Very interesting

Yup I reckon it would which is why I use powdered graphite similarly to how MD mentions, but dip the base of my projectiles in it before seating instead of the case neck which would be problematic as I mentioned above.
