Which Case Lube Works Best For You?

[safooma]

I have had nothing but problems with the spray lubes. I primarily use the rcbs lube pad and no longer have problems with stuck cases. I like that you can roll 8 or so out a time on the pad, so it's pretty efficient too.

I haven't had any stuck .223 cases using One Shot. I did buy a carbide expanding ball for my RCBS die and it does made a difference in how much force is used.

I just spit on my hand and rub it around a little.

Easy there fella. We're talking about reloading brass cases here.

I tried some of the various spray lubes when they 1st came out with mixed results, I'm sure they have improved over the years but I just use my RCBS or LEE Lube and a couple of pads with a small dab on a neck brush to run into the case mouth...Been working great for many, many years

If I'm forming wild cats that require multiple dies and strokes of the handle I use Unique, I just rub it on my thumb/forefinger so I can keep the case lightly lubed while forming

If ever a case is going to get stuck, it's forming a case!

I use the lanolin and alcohol it's great! Before that it was dillon case lube.
FYI 2oz lanolin and 12oz 99%alcohal mixed warm and never have to do it again. Very cost effective

I used to use this for all my progressive reloading. I never did care for the stickiness that it left on the cases though.

Ahh Comes right off when you tumble it

Yes, and I used to do that. With the Hornady One-Shot I don't have to do that anymore.
