I have single shot rugers, neck sized only don't lub so don't have to clean.

Forgot to say for my 357 loads I have carbide dies ( have 2 set ups, 1 for 38 and 1 for 357) No lub so no clean.

Hello
So what happens if you don`t remove the minimal amount of sizing wax that is used ?

I would imagine you lose the friction of the case against the chamber walls, so the bolt lugs take the whole pressure...?

Same thing as "dont fire wet ammo"...for the same reason...
