I have a Star sizer utilizing Magma Hard Lube that I use commonly for pistol boolits.Never had an issue with leading. (I prefer the hard lube for these to keep them from sticking together...and other personal reasons.)

I am now dropping NOE's 60 grain Saeco clone round nose .225" that I hope to use in my AR15 for plinking and fun.

I am crafting a .225" Star die to size/lube these with gas checks.

Anybody have luck with Magma Hard Lube and rifle loads?

I do have a RCBS LAM loaded with Lar's red carnauba that I know will work. I just like the speed of my Star!

No experience with 22s, but it worked ok in 30 calibers for me, I've been using
Ben's Red Lately, but in years past, the magma worked just fine.
