arcticap and duelist are right, the more tallow, lard or fat you add from whatever source (in proportion to the beeswax) the softer the lube will be at room temp. I cook up a pretty soft mix to have for when I want to just get some on a rag to wipe down the guns or smear some in the lube grooves of a bullet and it ends up being mostly lard with some beeswax in the mix. I just started using gatofeos recipe for making felt wads and will be test firing as soon as it quits raining here.
