I have used Magma lube for probably 30 years easily....maybe more.
Did I mention I hate change?
It was a hard lube that flowed perfectly in a heated Star sizer.
I bought literally 20 tubes at a time. I am down to my last 10 or so tubes.
Now that they are gone, what can I use that is the equivalent?
I am not into experimenting....I just need a replacement that is the same formula.
I never bothered to get the formula from them, so i don't have a clue what was in it.
Suggestions?

I've a bunch of the stuff I'd trade stick for stick for White Label lubes. I'll count it tonight and let you know how much I have.

Man, if there isn't something there that will work just fine, I don't know what will.
Many thanks.

I think you will like White Label lubes Carnuba Red (2700+).
While I make my own lube for my shooting, I use Carnuba Red for boolits that will get shipped or whatever.
It is kind of hard and needs a heater to go through a lubesizer press. It sticks in lube grooves well, but doesn't stick to your fingers or to each other if stored/shipped in bulk.
Is it the same formula as Magma's lube? obviously not.
Maybe get one tube of Carnuba Red to try out.

I couldn't remember his handle here. I've used several of his lubes and am quite satisfied. I've never used his harder lubes, with BAC being the hardest I've tried.
I have a message in to him now.
Many thanks for the help!

Yup I've overlooked them too.
kinda late here but I use carnuba red in my star with about 50-60 Lbs air pressure and heat base to 105F via PID
I know regular magma shut down last year, but from what i've seen online, didn't they restart ( perhaps aquired/ new ownership )in australia?
Yes, their website is here:

This is great! Thanks! Hoping to one day have a bullet feeder for each lubrisizer.
