hBN instead of molly for dry neck lube

Let's not turn this into a FL vs NK sizing debate.

I do both so don't go there. I customize FL or have made, dies for my seating pressure so don't go there. There are times I body size then neck size with not expander, then use a mandrel to get exactly what I want. That's not what this is about so don't go there.

This is about the lubricity of hBN vs. molly for neck sizing, whether it be a regular die or a bushing die. If you want to you can throw in oil, wax based lubes like Imperial. I use Imperial dry lube right now for dry neck sizing.

I bring this up because I hBN all my bullets, now, even cast lead for my falling block 45-70 "pointy" bullets.

It seems to me that hBN to hBN vs hBN to molly would change things.

Anyone gone this route?
