[QUOTE="Koveras, post: 718377, member: 1669"] I have never lubed the bullets. I just slightly expand the case mouths with the expander die to let the bullets start and then crimp with the FCD after the bullet is seated. I can't recall ever crushing a shoulder. I use the Lee 3 die set (sizer, expander, seater) + FCD. I also only use Speer brass for 357 Sig, so I don't know if other brands are subject to collapse. EDIT to add: I also use a single stage press, so I place the bullets on the case mouth individually prior to seating. I have no experience using a progressive. Maybe they require lube on the bullets?
