THE ONLY WAY YOU CAN HIT THE CENTRE OF THE TARGET IS WITH A CENTREFIRE!!!
Hi-Tek works great for the smoothies.
for the low end target loads I just use some lanolin and castor oil mixed together.
I swipe it on by hand.
if things are gonna go faster I tumble lube in 45/45/10 and let it dry.
I have hitek, but was trying to avoid the agitation if tumbling. Dipping would be good. Dip in hitek maybe?

you have to shake that stuff.
to put on the 45/45 lube I put the bullets in a small [10-12oz] plastic cup with a lid and drip the lube on then swirl them around the cup.
and just roll it over a few times.
I melt the lube and heat the bullets so the lube just flows over them like water.
you don't have to bang them around violently just swirl and roll.
the lube dries to a hard shell.
I know JPW is hard to find in Au. so a replacement wax is tre-wax, it's used on furniture.
