For whatever it may be worth to others...............I have had success with various lubes but have been happily using soap for some time.-Nothing new-George Nonte recommended it in his handloading bokk decades ago. Instead of Nonte's medical green soap I have used Ivory. About 1/3 of a bar grated into one cup of water IIRC. Stick it in the microwave for a minute/until the soap melts/dissolves. After it cools you are left with a gel that is easy to rub on with fingers, works marvelously and then the residue wipes off CLEAN with a damp rag.
