I've never used this lube before. Right now I pan lube with Lar's 50-50 and like it but being lazy the tumble lube looks easier. I lube 38/357 bullets weighing 150 and 165 grain. Most will be shot at 850-900 fps, some at 1100 and a few at 1250+. I read about a "liquid seal" between bullet and barrel, I don't know if there is such thing or not. I haven't seen any negative reports about 45-45-10 and if it works as well for my application as 50-50 I think I might be ahead to switch. Anyone see a problem with this?
Thanks, Rex

It will work extremely well for things in that velocity range in my experience. Unless it's really hot .357s, .44s, or similar, I TL pistol bullets almost exclusively with a very few exceptions.

Depending on how many boolits you are reloading , you want to keep an eye on your seating die for a wax buildup, it WILL change your OAL, I clean mine after about every 150- 200 rounds. The OAL will start getting progressively shorter.

Good question, and you got the correct answer from the guys who responded. This site is great for questions. IMHO
