Any suggestions for a good DIY case lube? Does lanolin work? | ||

10:1 Ratio - use 99% alcohol to Lanolin. Spray bottle. Andrew Duty is the sublimest word in the English Language - Gen Robert E Lee. | |||

The lanolin lube is the one I typically see/hear about most often. I am still more than happy with the One Shot water-based spray lube, so I haven't experimented much. Some options I've seen/heard about before: - Synthetic motor oil - Pam cooking spray - Hornady liquid case lube (P#050009) and 99% isopropyl alcohol "In order to understand recursion, you must first learn the principle of recursion." | |||

I was going to post something regarding this soon… Is the lanolin mix simply with 100% pure lanolin oil? Figuring I should buy some to have on hand. Nine years to retirement! Just waiting! | |||

I mix 1 Tbs (15ml) lanolin in one 12oz bottle of HEET. Shake it up good and put it into a little pump spray bottle. Works great.This message has been edited.

You can get pure lanolin at the pharmacy. Ask the clerk or pharmacist for the lanolin women use for their nipples when nursing, and use as high a percentage of alcohol as you can find. BTW the lanolin works great for winter chapped hands “You may beat me, but you will never win.” sigmonkey-2020 “ in my opinion, anything that we can do to trigger a potential aneurysm in a leftist is a good thing and worth doing” nhtagmember 2025 | |||

I have been coming across bees wax recipes. Cannot find them now. I actually wanted to try bees wax for cases as well for lubing the sizing and neck expanding dies. | |||

Years ago I tried the lanolin mixture recipe but have gone back to Hornady One Shot Getting shot is no achievement. Hitting your enemy is. NRA Endowment Member . NRA instructor | |||
