Question hand lubing a small batch of bullets

I have a small batch (read less than 100) of bullets I bought off of a store shelf awhile back. They are Speer Idaho Territory bullets (Which are supposedly dry lubed). They are .454 230gr bullets that I am thinking about dropping into a few 45lc cases with some trail boss behind them just for bunkums. The thing is that everybody and their dog handled this open box of bullets (which numbers in the 90s instead of the 100 count on the box) over the years and some of them are dry as old sandpaper. What would be a good lube to just lube them with and fill in the lube groove by hand? IE I don't have a lube/sizer and am not all that interested in having one at this point (Later yes but not right now)

"The gun has been called the great equalizer, meaning that a small person with a gun is equal to a large person, but it is a great equalizer in another way, too. It insures that the people are the equal of their government whenever that government forgets that it is servant and not master of the governed." - 40th President of the United States Ronald Reagan 1911-2004
