Starting to shoot some WB matches next time on is available.  Using Win 231 powder with manufactored bullets for the time being.  I have a mold coming in from Lee to cast some myself.    What lube are you using in your sizer for the .45 auto?  Does pearl lube work?   Recommendations. 



Thanks

Anything that stays on the bullet will work. Pearl and  other BP lubes might be to soft and get pulled off when loading. Lee Alox always works in my 45.

I use my homemade soft-lube for everything I cast, size and/or lube myself whether for black or smokeless loadings.
Can't comment on "pearl" lube suitability.
