    How long can sized brass sit before loading?

    Interesting, I have brass sized/primed sitting for year before loading. Again I load for hunting and not competitive shooting. Never noticed significant difference for hunting accuracy. But only been doing it for 50 years or so

    Sizing lube removal

    Have never intentionally removed lube after resizing in 30+ years reloading handgun or rifle. Reload rifle from 22Hornet, 223, 7-08, 243, 270, 6.8SPC, 308, 300WinMag, 300WSM, 375H&H, 416 Rigby, 7Rem, 284Win,etc. Guess I have been doing it wrong.

    Reusing Primers?

    Yes they can be reused but alternative is to leave them in the Lapua brass and resize without the deprime assembly and load your recipe.

    Lands?

    Easiest is the Hornady OAL gauge. You can use a sized brass with only slight neck tension, place desired bullet, chamber and lock bolt, carefully extract brass and measure.

    Thanks for clarifying, definitely wrong as it also provides no means to adjust col and over crimps

    Are you sure the Lee instructions weren't for the sizing die and not the seating die?
