Assemble the rounds with all the components, and then do a final tumble... E/C says that you won't hear any explosions.

@ what point and how do you remove case lube.
I considered retumbling my deprimed/sized cases in dry clean corncob media or is a quick wipe off sufficient.....im useing hornady spray case lube for now.

Just what the hell do you think is going on inside a vibratory cleaner that will make a primer go off? What do you use for media? Jacks? Thumbtacks? Even if you had a .500 go off in a bowl you wouldn't know it until you emptied it and found a fired case and a loose bullet.
