just wanted to pop in for a bit and let you guys know about what i discovered and have been using for swaging lube. i lost my job at the lottery retailer and started working for a John Deere dealership as parts salesman. they have what is called "corn head grease" for the gearboxes on combine corn heads. its a thixotropic grease that works PERFECTLY for swaging bullets. and at 2$ for a 14 oz tube its far cheaper than any purpose made swaging lube. im using it with BT snipers dies for turning 9mm brass into 40 cal jacketed bullets. A1 results all around.
