Mine too!!! I have not had any stuck cases so far but I only spray 5 cases at a time. To me it cleans up alot easier then standard lube trays.

Hornady One Shot and Dillon Case Lube.
I've pretty much switched to the Dillon stuff.

I've used One Shot with good success - the aerosol one...not the non-aerosol pump water-based one. That H2O based stuff sucks badly.
been using one shot aerosol for a while and no problems. if I have a small batch of rifle cases I lube them with a pad w RCBS case lube. large batch I use spray lube, but have recently started using the Dillon pump bottles for lube. works fine but hard to get a nice even coat with the pump bottle.
I have been using the Lee lube for years. I have also used some kind of aerosol but don't remember the name brand. I have thought of trying some of the RCBS spray but if it is like the aerosol, it will be awful messy. A friend on another forum gave me a recipe which I haven't tried yet but sounds pretty good.
He said to mix the Lee lube with alcohol and using a spray bottle spray it on the cases. He claims that the alcohol will evaporate and leave a fine film of lube on the cases. As I said, I haven't tried it yet because I haven't loaded any rifle ammo since late summer last year. When I get out and shoot some, I will contact him for exact amounts of lube and alcohol and give it a try. Got nothing to loose, really.

WOW! I guess I am the only one to use Imperial?!?!?!!?!?
My experiance with Dillon case lube has been pretty good. I get two bottles for the price of one. Cut it with 97% alcohol and its fine. I like putting my brass into a small box and shaking it while spraying it. Found that I get complete coverage and have not stuck a case yet.
Most of the pump sprays if you look at the ingrediants is made with lanolin. You can get that stuff in the pure form from a health food shop. Put some into a small spray pump, cut it with alcohol and here is your case lube!
