    lube the first few with imp wax then 1 every 3 or 4, run your waxed finger over the lip to get a little "peel" off into the inside every 5 or so. I think 1 wax will do 8000 rounds a the rate I am going...

    7mmsaum put me onto the Imperial die wax a few years ago, never looked back, prior to that i had issues with stuck cases or dented shoulders thru over-lubing.

    All of those issues have gone away now that im using the Imperial die wax, and it does basically last forever, its surprizing how little you actually need on a case.
