I've been away from casting, for a bit, but starting up again. Past experience was only with 500gr. for my 45/70 Sharps. I used Lyman Super-Moly for it. Now I'll be working up moderate loads for 44 Spl (450gr. Keith) and 405 WCF (285gr.). I have a Lyman 4500 and would like to try other lubes. Any recommendations welcome. Please note if they require a heater also as I would need to buy one.

FWFL (Felix World Famous Lube) is what I use.

White Label Lubes has great lubes and you really can't make a good lube for the price they sell it at.

White lable Lube's BAC is a good place to start. It's a mixture of their Carnuba Red and their 50-50 lube; good stuff...

White Label lubes also had a bood BP lube but has not produced any for over a year. His lubes are the best with out trying to do your own.No one can beat his price that he sells for.

My only problem with White Lable Lubes, is that I am afraid that something will happen and he will go out of business. Have about a 3 year supply now, but think I will work up to having about a 10 year supply on hand. It won't go bad!

I assume this is a typo.....

I used to make my own boolit lubes, now I buy BAC from Lars. I can barely buy the materials for what he charges.

I mainly use White Label lubes now but can also recommend the following as they have never let me down either at velocities in the 2,200 fps region - Felix's World Famous Lube, Speed Green and LBT Blue.

For smokeless powders I will plus 1 on dromia post about the Speed Green if you get a itch to try making your own lube as it is so easy to make and use.
