[QUOTE="Teri Anne, post: 2383942, member: 118816"] On pistols use carbide sizing dies which makes lube unnecessary. I do load pistol for production but not anywhere close to as fussy as I am with my rifle reloads. Few people can tell the difference in 1/10th of 1 grain difference when shooting a pistol at 50 feet or less. I am however particular about my rifle loads. Without going into great detail I generally use RCBS or Lee case lube. It's a bit messy and one has to clean the sizing dies from time to time to get rid of the buildup but I get consistent pressures when running the cases through the dies. I have tried One Shot. I found that you have to do the resizing when the cases are at least still damp. Too soon after spraying one gets dimples on the shoulders, too long after and the cases have a tendency to while not quite sticking but requiring a lot more pressure on the reloading press handle. Since I load more for accuracy than production I don't mind taking the extra time, which in my opinion makes my ammo more consistent. [/QUOTE]
