I have some bullets that have been tumble lubed with 45-45-10 and would like to run them through my Lyman 4500. Can this be done or will the 45-45-10 keep the lube from sticking? Yes I know its redundant but can it be done?

I did not try it with 45-45-10, but I had a bunch that was tumbled in straight LLA and found that new lube will fill the grooves, but it will come out if you jostle them around a lot. I ran some through the sizer with some BAC and it works nice if you load them straight away. But I put some in a ziplock bag and after a couple of times of shifting them around while looking for other boolits, a lot of it fell out. But I found that with some other tumbled ones that I had, after given a quick swirl in some gasoline and left em out for a day to dry, and they went through the sizer then like new and it adhered fine. 8-)
