The top slide too easy without the tray, but re-purposed rubber bands used to hold stalks of Broccoli together does the trick.

I supplementally lube a few .22LR with diluted alox occasionally.
I put them in the aforementioned trays with a 100 holes in them and dip the tip of the nose (~1/8") in a shallow pan of a 50/50 mix of warm LLA and mineral spirits.
A little messy and they are dirt magnets, but putting a few "doctored" rounds down a thoroughly scrubbed barrel, seems to minimize leading.
