Gentelmen, how do you prep cases for a prolonged storage? I bought a lot of once fired brass that will last me for years, should I just tumble and dry or would you use any lube/chemicals to prevent oxidation? TIA!

Clean and dry.  Keep in an air tight bag/container and there shouldn't be any long-term storage problem.  I'd avoid handling the cleaned brass with bare hands to avoid acidic skin sweat/grease.  There will be some slight darkening of the brass over time but that's not an issue.

Sistema make good storage boxes , they’re in the kitchen ware isle at Asda. Work great for storing bullets too . 500  30 cal bullets will fit in a 1 litre box and don’t tarnish at all . Cheers Rich
