I visited a friend who is also a caster and shooter.
He said, " Hey, I've got something for you ! "
Beeswax, WOW !

Beeswax & olive oil..... The only kitchen friendly lube I know about. Taste great on toast also.

Sept. 10, 2021 Steve left us. You are missed.
That will keep Trevor in business for some time. ;)

He needs to develop his own lube, maybe Trevor’s teal?

That Looks exactly like the stuff I used to buy When I was making..... My Bees Wax /Mutton tallow/Bayberry wax mix for GOEX for muzzleloading! In the 1990's! The blocks of bees wax were super clean!
However the Bayberry wax dried up and they decided to source the mutton tallow from Australia ! With import duties and FDA involved it was impossible to produce at Good price point to sell! It was called "Bee-Baa-Bay" and I still make it for myself for my flintlock shooting!

That looks a lot prettier than the beeswax I gave you. Not nearly as old as mine either. Good catch.

the good thing about bees wax, even if it's 100 years old, is you just re-melt it and it's as good as new again.
