Whatever you do stay as far away from One Shot as possible, that stuff is horrible. Everyone that I have heard have a stuck case has been using One ****. A lot of people like Unique case lube, but if you are using a wax case lube make sure you dont have too much on it or you will dent the brass around the shoulder probably since that is where most of the vent holes in the dies are located.
How many different ones are there? You'll likely get that many different answers. I've tried a few different ones over the years, and most work ok. My favorite by far is marketed by Hornady, under the name "Unique". I've been using it for the last several years. A tub of it goes a long way. I use it in conjunction with an RCBS case lube pad and a nylon brush for inside the neck. A dab on the pad will last a while and lube a bunch of cases. It cleans up easy and is non fouling. It's also very reasonably priced. Below is a link to it at Midway.

I've never used any of the Areosol type case lubes. I've seen to many people get stuck cases. I've been using plain old liquid Lyman case lube and pad for manys years. The only case I've ever stuck was a 30.06 that I missed lubing. What a $@#$^@$!!! that was to get out finally.

It varies as to how many I've sized. If its a box of 20, I'll likley wipe them off with an alcohol dampened paper towel. If I've sized a pile of em, I throw em in the vibratory case tumbler for a while.
You plumb welcomed, anytime!
