Ram Lube??

what kind of lube do you guys use to lube the ram on your press? I was using rcbs case lube, but it seemed like i was adding more all the time. decided i should actually be using a grease so i lightly coated the ram with silicone fishing reel grease seems to work great, but maybe theres something better.

I just gun oil. Usually real light stuff like rem oil. Especially in the dies too. You don't want that stuff gunking up on you like sludge.

yep the sludge got lots of that with a rcbs case lube. id wipe it away with a rag but what a mess it would make power residue mixed with rcbs case lube is some pretty messy stuff. sofar the light coat of reel grease is workin pretty good no sludge yet. i think ill try the rem oil next.
