Cast bullet lube

[loiner1965]

I usually use Alox diluted with methylated spirit....using lanolin with solvent for lubing cases..Has anyone used lanolin with solvent as cast bullet lube..?

Home Mix (50% pure natural beeswax, 40% Original Crisco and 10% Canola Oil) makes a very successful lube for Black Powder. I have since modified the original formula by reducing the Canola Oil to 5% and adding 5% Anhydrous Lanolin
crisco over here is sold asTrex, Flora White or Cookeen where as canola oil is just rapeseed oil
i also dilute alox with a liquid floor wax but very well shaken before use.
it so thin it doesnt look like anything is on the bullets and i am reaching around 2000 fps without issue
