One of first guy's I talked to about reloading basically told me the same thing, so I just keep a log. First in a Navy quarterdeck log book, then moved the data to computer.
I just leave the lube on because the way I do it, there's not much left over anyway.
Again it's not about just sizing, that's almost irrelevant in the process of a progressive press; it's the expander die, seating die and crimp die the lube helps most with.
Try it lube 25 cases and don't lube...
I switched from Hornady One Shot spray to Brass Juice case lube. The Brass Juice is not flammable and one shot is.
If you use it sparingly one bottle or can of ether should last for about 50,000 cases.

What I think people miss is on a progressive press a little case lube helps the whole process run smoother.
Just my opinion your mileage may definitely very.
I use Hornady one shot or Brass Juice. Spray a little in a plastic bag add cases shake, dump and let dry. Helps a lot with the operation, I usually load 12,000 rounds a year.
Have three lever guns in 357 magnum and wanted that Ruger Bolt gun, but it was just to small LOP needed 16.5 inch to fit me. So, I got an MGM barrel for my Encore in 357 magnum.
