Sure.
Basic mix for smokeless loads:
2# raw beeswax (cappings grade is best, but you will have to strain it)
1/4# grade 1 Carnauba wax flakes (this is extremely hard wax)
8 fluid ounces of SBGO (you can sub your fav gun oil in here)
I called it SBGO Boolit Balm. and it works fantastic. I ran it to 2500 FPS with gaschecked 200 gr loads in 7.62X54 and .30-06 with no leading.
Pan lubing is where you use a baking dish (I recommend silicone baking dishes for easy removel of the solidified wax block) Line up your un lubed un sized bullets in the dish so theres roughly a half inch between each bullet and the walls of the dish. then pour the hot lube melt into the pan up past the lube groove in the bullets. allow the lube to completely cool and harden (Overnight is best) then either push out from the base or cut out with a modified fired case (for .45 handgun bullets I used a .45-70 case with the base cut off). Use whichever method gives you bullets with full lube grooves. Then just size them and load and shoot them.
