cheap and effective resizing lube
« on: August 20, 2023, 07:18:55 PM »


plus



about a pea sized portion of lanolin per ounce of HEET. I put the mixture in a little spray bottle and put it in a small bowl of warm water for the mixture to coalesce
Works very well

I tried it...it's ok.

I'm mostly a pistol shooter so my needs are not very demanding.
The lanolin seems harder to remove after loading.
I clean the lube off after loading, not after sizing.
I might be allergic to the stuff too.

I use it on 223. After sized I throw it in the wet tumbler for about 15 mins. Then after trimming I throw it in a dry tumbler with some wax additives for preservation and bling.
