I have a mould made by Lachmiller, I have cast many .45 200gr bullets with it, it uses 2 shallow grease grooves, I have been using a Lyman sizer and lubricater to size and lube the boolits.
Has anyone tried to tumble lube this type and size them with a Lee sizer. The reason that I ask is because it is much faster than the Lyman lubrisizer.

I tumble lube my 200 swc for 45 auto, and mine has one deep grease groove. The shallow grooves are probably even better

You should be good to go

Before I switched to the Lee tumble lube specific bullets I used standard 9mm and .45 acp bullets with a single groove and tumble lubed them just fine.

I have a Lee 200 gr. SWC, 45 cal. (clone of H&G 68?) that I tumble with 45-45-10...

Everyone above is correct.

Tumble lubing was invented before tumble lube grooves were.
