Bullet lubes?

[Jackie Graham]

I am looking for a good all around lube for my cast bullets. I am currently usind Lyman's super moly but it is a little messy. I get every where and I have tracked it on the carpet. My wife almost shot me!

I have a 450 Lyman sizer with a heater.

Does anyony have any sugestions?

I have tried several and settled on this one.

I have the same sizer with a heater, I think, I thought it was a 4500 though.

Anyway, some of the other lubes I tried were too runny when the sizer was good and heated.

Try the Super Moly without heat. It will work better for you. I have several sticks of it. Got them when Midway had them on sale. Have since made a few sticks of my own with beeswax and moly bearing grease. Works just like store bought! Using mine in a 4500 BTW.

White Label Lube's Red Carnauba:

By far, best lube I've used. You can push it really hard and it does wonders for keeping the leading under control. I've shot it in 308 Win rifle at 2500fps, and it stops leading in my rifles even at that kind of pressure and velocity. I use it for all my centerfire cast shooting: 9mm, 38/357, 45acp, 308 Win, 7.5x55, 30-30, etc. Does require a heater. White Label (Glen Larson) has softer lubes if you want something for use without a heater.

And it's cheap: $1.65 a stick if you choose bagged sticks instead of plastic tubes. He charges USPS flat rate shipping. $20 will get you enough lube for many thousands of bullets, and that includes shipping. And that's for a lube that I consider to be a superior product to much of what's out there.
