Model: 460478 • UPC: 661120439967
Make sizing effortless and protect your dies with Case Lube (460478)—a bench-essential lubricant formulated to reduce friction, prevent stuck cases, and deliver repeatable, smooth press strokes. Whether you’re full-length sizing magnum rifle brass or forming wildcats, this high-performance case lube keeps your workflow clean, consistent, and efficient so you can spend more time loading and less time clearing jams.
Why Reloaders Choose This Case Lube
Stuck-Case Insurance: A uniform, thin film dramatically reduces sizing force and prevents seized brass in steel and carbide dies.
Clean, Low-Residue Formula: Designed to won’t gum up or leave heavy films—easy to wipe off or tumble away during post-size cleaning.
Die & Brass Friendly: Helps protect die interiors and case necks from galling, improving case life and maintaining neck tension consistency.
Consistent Press Feel: Smoother handle travel means more consistent shoulder bump and less variance from press spring-back.
Versatile Application: Suitable for bottle-neck rifle and straight-wall pistol brass; great for high-volume sessions and case forming.
Tip: Uniform application is more important than using a lot. A light, even coat beats heavy, uneven lubrication every time.
Ideal Use Cases
Full-Length Sizing of .223/5.56, 6.5 CM, .308, .30-06, .300 WM, and more
Case Forming/Wildcats where friction spikes and stuck cases are common
Carbide or Steel Dies (verify die maker’s recommendations)
High-Volume Prep for match, training, or hunting ammo
How to Use (Fast & Effective)
Clean Brass: Start with media-cleaned or wet-tumbled cases free of heavy dirt.
Apply Lightly: Place cases in a tray; apply a thin, even coat—focus on case body and a touch inside the neck (via a brush or pad).
Let It Flash (If Needed): Give a brief moment to spread/flash depending on room temp and product feel.
Size as Normal: Run cases through the die—note the smoother stroke and reduced effort.
Remove Residue: Wipe down, tumble for a short cycle, or wash per your routine before priming and charging.
For best neck tension, lightly lube inside necks with a brush—avoid heavy deposits that could contaminate powder.
Bench-Proven Benefits
Better Concentricity: Lower friction reduces jerky motion, helping keep TIR (runout) in check.
More Uniform Shoulder Bump: Smooth sizing pressure supports repeatable headspace targets.
Extended Tool Life: Less metal-to-metal friction preserves finish on premium dies and mandrels.
Fewer Workflow Interruptions: No more stopping to extract a stuck case—keep the press running.

Always follow your die manufacturer’s care guidance. Avoid over-lubing shoulders and case rims to prevent hydraulic dents.
Pro Tips for Consistent Results
Batch Method: Lay cases in a shallow tray and roll them lightly for even coverage.
Inside-Neck Brush: One light pass reduces expander drag and keeps neck tension uniform.
Check Feel: If the handle “grabs,” add a touch more lube; if dents appear, use less.
Post-Size Polish: A short tumble in corn cob/walnut restores squeaky-clean brass ahead of priming.
Frequently Asked Questions
Can I use this with carbide pistol dies?
Yes. While carbide dies need less lube, a light film makes high-volume runs smoother and reduces effort—especially on straight-wall brass.
Will it contaminate powder or primers?
Used correctly and removed during normal cleanup, the lube should not affect components. Always keep lube off case mouths before charging.
How much should I apply?
Use the least amount that delivers a smooth stroke—typically a thin, even coating. Over-lubing can cause shoulder dents.
Does it affect annealed brass?
No special steps required—just apply lightly and proceed. Clean thoroughly after sizing.
