A Better Way to Lube?


PDA

I've been using the Lee lube for my rifle cases and applying it by hand. I've seen the "pad" available from RCBS where you apply the lube to the pad and then roll the case on it. Seems like this would be an easier way (less messy) to apply the lube as well as more cost effective.

Is this the preferred method used by most? What is that "pad" from RCBS made of? Is there a substitute material (mouse pad?) that could be used?

Thanks

I like using spray lubes. It seems quicker, and applies a thinner, more even coat of lube on the cases, making it easier to remove the lube, after sizing. (I like Rooster's lube).

fmnnc,

Imperial Sizing Die Wax, sold by Redding. It's not messy like the lubes; more like the consistency of ChapStick.
