You do want to lube the inside of the case neck, so the expander ball goes smoothly in and out.
Most of the spray lubes tell you to spray some lube inside the sizing die before you start resizing- and it helps a lot.
Machine gun fired brass will be expanded more than you're used to, and military brass is thicker (usually) than commercial brass, too. Both factors will make the xase harder to size.
