I do the same thing. Glen makes quality lube at a great price. I did entertain the idea of making my own lube and I've got all of the stuff to do it with stashed back. I just made another order to Glen a couple weeks ago. I've got enough lube squirreled away to last for years.
BTW, Bull Shop makes great lube too. I've used it with great results. I just needed a little harder lube for my application.

Well, Once I got the crayon situation hammered out, I added a little more vaseline and got the consistency that I was looking for. However, don't try that lube on TL bullets. Its a disasterpiece.
Hi Bullshop,
It's simple: SPG is over $30 a pound. I can make my own lube which is practically identical to it for $5 a pound.
It's also a hoot to make my own, the same reason why I cast and reload.
