Looking for a bullet lube recipe


Hi all , I'm about to get into casting rifle bullets, read heaps of info on cast boolits about lube and to be honest I've come away more confused than enlightened. What I need is a lube that will work to drive a 6.5 mm bullet at about 2000 to 2200 fps. The bullet is a Lyman design 140 gn gas checked bullet probably originally made for shooting metal silhouette, I'd like to try it on some porkers this dry so any help will be appreciated.
I have a good supply of bee's wax and about a kilo of industrial petroleum jelly although I don't know if these will be useful at the speed I want to drive these bullets at, most commercial lubes are not easy to get around here hence the need to make my own.

Cheers
Pete
