I honestly like dirty unique because it smokes a good bit. What is a good smokeless lube that SMOKES? I’ve coated my bullets several times with liquid alox if anyone is planning to suggest that.

I don't know about "best", but 50/50 smokes pretty good from my .45.
I like unique for its versatility. The mess i could do without. What caliber are you shooting a lot of handgun cartridges can be loaded with black powder if you like smoke but will need serious cleaning.
paraffin- RCBS pistol lube. Makes black grease in revolvers.
Alox is a lube ingredient that is known to create smoke, possibly more than any other ingredient.
More alox = more smoke.
Have you tried applying LLA using RanchDog's "dip" method?
It's a bit entailed, a quick search should yield a pictorial thread.
My 2¢ is that using a NRA 50-50 lube on a boolit with a large lube groove, is a lot easier way to a lot of Alox per boolit.

Yup Alox! Stinks and smokes, works well in 50/50 though.
I've tried all of the White Label Lubes, except for NRA 50/50 (far too crumbly to bother with). By far the most smoke is from BAC. I also enjoy smoke and smell. Why stop at smokeless only lubes? Try some SPG.
Vaseline and paraffin mixed. Thought I was shooting black powder. (I hated this!)
PS- if you use any of the scented vaselines by mistake, they smoke and smell.....

Alox 50 / 50 in my book smokes like heck.
Now you guys have me wanting to mix Klotz R50 2 stroke oil into some beeswax to make the greatest smelling bullet lube on earth.
I've had pretty good luck with melted down crayons thinned with axle grease and a bump of motor oil.
Another option is if you have a little pedigree dog.
They have glands under the base of their tail that needs to be periodically squeezed or 'expressed'.
That stuff is pretty slimy and smells just awful. It might smoke a lot too.

OK People. Enough of this idle chit-chat.
