[QUOTE="Shadowrider, post: 1463839, member: 3099"] I've used about everything as far as case lubes go. I only use the aerosol Hornady One Shot for pistol calibers and all my dies are carbide or titanium nitride coated and don't require any lube but I use it anyway. For rifle calibers Imperial is by far the best I've found. If you want to find the best lube just start loading .375 Winchester. It looks like a straight wall case but it's got a slight taper along it's entire length and if you put just a tiny amount you will still wrinkle the case. Too little and you will stick the case in the die. It's a very very fine line and a minuscule amount of Imperial is the only lube I've found that will size that round without wrinkling or sticking it in the die. I did try out some of the Hornady One Shot sizing wax that comes in the tin just like the Imperial and it worked great on the 2500 .223 rounds I just trimmed up. But I'll never be using the aerosol One Shot for anything more than making pistol cases run smoother the the press. Also any liquid lanolin lube (like the Dillon) will foul your powder charge if you get it inside the case so it's best to tumble before loading, but they work pretty well too. [/QUOTE]
