just got done mixing up a batch of case sizing lube. the 2 ingredients are castrol stick lube and lanolin. it is supposed to be the recipe for imperial sizing die wax ( the only thing that i will use ) which leads me to this thread. the castrol stick lube seems like it would make the main ingredient for a bullet lube. designed for lubing saw blades cutting tools drills ect. its feels sticky, waxy and greasy. just wanted to make my own case lube for fun. the next lube i'll make will be Bens Red. but for you bullet lube experimeters you might want to try castrol 98-629-9

I didn't look it up but it sounds a lot like hydrogenated castor oil. I still haven't made anything with the castor wax flakes that Chris sent me a couple years ago, but it's on the docket.
