Case lube question

[MarkDisciplinare]

I'm pretty surprised that nobody here uses Imperial Sizing Wax. A tin lasts for 30k+ rounds, and you'll never stick a case. Its a great product.

I use that, it’s great lube! I also just received a bottle of the Ballistic tools water-based lube and it seems to work as well as the Dillon case lube. Also have used the RCBS case lube and it works well but the sprayer on the bottle is poorly designed!!

For handgun loading I use the Hornady One Shot sprayed into a ziplock bag and it’s fine. Makes my 550 run a bit smoother...

I’ve been using the imperial sizing die wax since the late 90’s. It’s all I use.

OK folks yesterday I stuck a 300blk case in my RCBS small base die using one shot is the Frankford arsenal case lube any better?

Just because you stuck 1 case doesn't mean that lube your using is bad. Most of the time it's user error. That case might not of have enough lube. Or it wasn't dry. I have been using one shot and have only stuck 1 case in 20 years. It wasn't lubed all the way.

I'm sure you are right. I'm still new and learning along the way. My thoughts are it was dry enough.

Everyone has to learn sometime. Your thoughts might be correct. In my case only half of the case had lube on it.

I was using a spray lube when I started and had a few stuck cases. Switched to the lanolin mix and will never go back. Not a single stuck case since, and it's way cheaper.

I do have a tub of unique though if I have an odd thing to do like deprime a case that has gotten mangled.

Tried unique like Wes recommended and it works excellent. Only a tad is needed. Very happy. Smooth as butter. [emoji4]

I bought a tub of the Unique lube and tested it on a few 7mm cases. Seems to work well.
