For relitively high velocity 200 gr 30 cal bullets, currently I tumble, but wonder what you guys do...

For all my pistol boolits I currently tumble, for my rifle I pan lube with FWFL with some Carnuba. But then I do not have a lubrisizer, but am saving for a Star.

all my boolits except for my 25-20 go through the stars.

Suggest you do what is best for you, works the best for you, is accurate to your satisfaction level in your weapons, and what you can afford, cash and time wise.

I'm using a lubrisizer to seat and crimp the GC anyway, so I lube there.

How fast are you going, and what kind of accuracy do you expect?

Tumble lubing: the quickest to actually lube the boolits; but you have to wait for them to dry.

Pan lubing: I have never done it, but there is a good sticky in the lube section on how to do it.

Lubrisizer: I figure out how many rounds I am going to load, then install gas checks/ lube and size in an RCBS Lubamatic.

There is another way to lube, hand lubing; where you smear the lube into the lube grooves with your fingers. A very messy way to do it and you need a fairly soft lube.
