just another lube question

[tnv]

I shoot cast .454 casull, loaded fairly hot (32grains 296) no gas check,300 grains, and use a 450 for sizing and lube. The lube I use is LBT blue, I'm quite happy with it and have no leading of the bore. I've never used Lee Liquid Alox bullet lube and the tumble lube method. It seems it would be a lot faster, so is there any reason not to use it that I haven't read about? I was planning on lube/size/lube again.

Give it a try. If you don't like it you can go back!

I think you will find the 454 has too much pressure to TL. .....Buck

tnv if you size and lube and with LBT and then Alox you will be all right,
or were you going to alox size alox? If the second is the case I think buck1 is probably really close with the pressure thing.

I was going to use straight alox, bypass the LBT, just to see if it would save the tyme and mess. So it would be alox/resize/alox. Just curious, does anyone know what the top working case pressure might be with alox? If I use practice loads in the 1200-1300 fps (I would guess the case pressure would be in the 30,000-35,000 area) would the alox be okay? thanks...tnv
