Jammed up 3 dies with Hornady one shot spray

My RCBS roll pad and RCBS lube lasts and lasts and lasts.

I've loaded at least 43 gazmillion pistol and rifle rounds in the last 25 years, and I have never stuck a case in a die.

I'm on my 2nd little bottle of slimy lube.

I have over lubed and dimpled some case shoulders, but I learned not to use that much lube.
 
I really like one shot for 223. I put the cases in a loading block reserved just for lubing cases. Spray both sides and down into the case mouths. I size them as
soon as I spray them. Since I started using One Shot down into the necks my sizing lengths have tightened up a lot. When I used Imperial I was getting
inconsistent lengths. It seams the expander was pulling back on the case.
Any way it works great for me.
 
I use nothing but Imperial sizing was for rifle cases. It is very clean and it's not messy at all. There is no need to tumble again to remove the lube and if you want to remove the lube a quick wipe with a cloth is all you need.

I also use Hornady One Shot but only for handgun cases. Small semi-auto cases like the 9mm and 45 Auto benefit from a quick spray even when using Carbide sizing dies. No need to wipe the cases down after sizing is a plus.
 
Been using using Hornady One Shot spray lube since it first came out. One Shot should be shook well before using. i load 5,000-10,000 rounds of rifle ammunition annually and almost never have a case stick in the die.
 
I had that happen twice in a one year span so I heeded the advice of a local reloader. He suggested Imperial size wax and I have never looked back.
 
I like wax, I think I have one from Hornady now. I use One Shot on occasion but with a stuck 22-250 well lubed with one shot and stuck 223 well lubed just dont have much faith in it now...
