I've sized a few for my .45s, but I have a Lee 200 grain TL bullet I prefer. I have an old Lee alox pan and cutter in .45 I lube with for the black powder stuff. Ain't very technical, slow as hell, but it works. I've found I can just as easily just grab the bullet with needle nose pliers and dip it in the hot lube and just let it dry on a paper towel. It's faster than letting the lube dry and cutting the bullet out with the cutter. The loading procedure trims the excess.
I don't know if liquid alox would work. I trust the alox/beeswax mix to stop any possibility of chain firing along with the fact that the conical has a lot of bullet surface area to seal the powder. I don't use crisco on the bullets and have never had a problem.
