I've only seen one recovered from game, a 50 cal that went lengthwise through a deer at 50+ yards and stopped against the hide at the back of the hindquarter. It was home-cast and home-lubed, and I don't recall any lube at all.
Kinda begs the question of whether all that lube is needed or does any good. Another thing that begs the question, I've had reports from a friend that he gets the best accuracy from double coating his maxis in Liquid Alox, not filling the grooves at all.
I can't conceive any mechanism in the firing that would cause more lube to come off one side, which I'd think would be bad. It is easy to conceive of the maxi being loaded without all the grooves filled all the way around. It "seems" like that would produce an off-balance maxi and affect accuracy.
That said, it would be very easy to test this on target paper: Pack the grooves on one side of the bullet and minimally lube the other and compare groups with maxis fully packed with lube.
