use "ONESHOT" case lube and don't worry about it. Great product  never had a problem with it. Have used it for 7 years.

I remover the lube right after sizing. Just throw a few hundred in a big ziplock with dawn. Dump them out after shaking for a bit and rinse.

Your book recommends tumbling loaded rounds?

Just enough. I just don't feel like bothering with wiping each one down and don't own a tumbler. Putting case lube into my ultrasonic doesn't appeal to me.

My rounds, once loaded, are put into storage containers until use.

I use the Dillon brand lube and it takes just a tiny spray....I usually lay the number of cases out I plan on loading, spritz, roll with a sponge, load, check and gauge the rounds. Then, I lay 'em out, sprits with cleaner, roll, put in a case. I usually do about 20 at a time this way with powder checks at 1, 3, 10, and 20.
