The question I have is, how quickly do I have to resize my cases after lubing them? Can I lube up a large batch on one day and resize them a day or two later? I'm looking at loading a lot of .223 and I resize and deprime on a single stage, and then load on my Dillon. Any advice on processing large amounts of rifle brass?

throw the unique away, best advice i got.
use anything else..... alberto vo-5 cream rinse,or bag balm would be preferrable to that stuff.

Why is that Run? I use the Hornady lube in a tub for pretty much all my case sizing needs. I find it easy to apply, easy to wash off the hands, and it seems to work quite well.

I really like the Hornady Unique wax.

I like Imperial Wax better.

I have no idea what would happen if you waited several days to resize.

I expect it would work ok. Bullets are lubed by wax which dries for days or weeks before being fired.

I think I posted this in the wrong sub forum. I was referring to case lube, not bullet lube. Damn new guys....8-)

My concern would be dust and such settleing on the cases and scratching your cases and dies. Only way is to try it or call Hornady.
