    Oiled cases as far as I'm aware were only ever used in pressure testing using the copper crusher method as well as in the ww1 Austrian schwarzloss blow back operated machine gun plus a few others.
    Not a practice I would ever consider myself. All the fire forming I've ever done has been with fast shotgun powders and either wax plugs or a light well lubed lead bullet.
