Hi Deerman ...

There are so many ways to lube bullets that it comes to personal preferance probably. I both size and lube with a Lyman Lubrisizer and RCBS dies. That is for bullets that I can size with that device.

Others, using beeswax and crisco as an ingredient, i do by gloved (rubber) hand by spreading some of the substance in my palm and rubbing the bullets together between my palms.

After they are all done, I take some paper towels and just wipe the nose and the tails and plop them in a box nose down.

There is nothing more frustrating than to try to pull a bullet from a box by its nose... specially when you bite your nails...

The other side of the equation there is that you can take a piece of cardboard, place upon the bullet bases, and turn over to have your bullets all standing in rows on the bench.... You do that till someone bangs into your bench and causing them to roll into the dirt ... but that is what learning is all about...

Aloha..
