Pay it Forward in Reloading

I recently upgraded from an older Hornady Pro-7/Pro-Jector to a new Hornady LnL. While cleaning out my bench I came across an original .38 Special/.357 Magnum shell plate. This shell plate is the old style in black with only one spring loaded ball bearing and no additional grooves machined underneath. I believe this type of shell plate will only work on the older Pro-7/Pro-Jector models. The Mrs. already bought me a new style LnL shell plate in that caliber. So....if you have a Pro-7/Pro-Jector and want a .38/.357 shell plate FREE of charge, send me your address and I'll even pick up the shipping.

This forum has been so good to me and provides so much guidance, this is the least I can do 👍

Could use a partial can or bottle of case lube, One Shot, RCBS, Lyman's..etc. to try. My newer Starline .45 Colt cases are an upper workout with a hand press even with carbide dies.

I'll give you a cheap lube trick. Cooking oil works great. I put a few dabs on a lube pad. And spread it out with my fingers. I use olive oil.

Thanks but I'm going to try a water based, self drying solution with the least amount of mess.

Try Lee case lube. It can be cut with water (or alcohol). It does work.

I cut it about 1 part Lee Case Lube with 7 or 8 parts if 99% isopropyl alcohol. I put it in a small sprayer and squirt a few pumps on brass laid out on a tray. It drys very quickly.

It can be cut with water also, but will take longer to dry, of course.

Don't run it through the die until it's dry. It's a wax-based lube.

Thanks for the tips. I assume you still have to remove the lube when applied this way?
 
I've heard of using JPW to lube loaded cartridges to keep from stretching cases in M14 service rifle competition. I think I heard about it on THR.
