So for fun I copper plated some 145gr .40S&W swc. My question is should I still tumble lube the bullets?
Also if some one can tell me how to post a pic from my iPhone I will.

you copper plated them so you shouldn't need to do anything but resize them.
i have seek guy's lube them too.
but don't think it's necessary.

No need for lube but just what alloy did you plate? Dead soft will see no advantage in a high pressure gun.

Should work fin.
Size below the thickness of the plating first, then plate so you do not need to size again.
