Default inside mag lubrication?

What is the best way to ensure maximum feeding efficency and speed for mags such as the Sten and GI 'Greasegun'? Should the inside be completely degreased and dry as a bone, should it have a light oil coat or perhaps a light application of CLP or would a spray 'dry' lubricant work best?

I like a dry lube. Shooting competition my mags end up on the ground a lot. Dirt/dust will collect on ANY surface, I have found the dryer the surface the better.
