Will marvel mystery oil work in the place of stp oil treatment?

What happens if you reload without lubing the bullets?

Hi, I'm new to casting and lubing, I hope you can answer my question. My cast bullets, 358 158gn, have two grooves. the one near the base is a straight sided groove, but the one above is tapered along one edge, . It this groove also supposed to be filled, or is this a crimp groove? if i fill it with lube and crimp to it, would this be OK?

Is lubing cast bullets necessary?

@Patstuf Can you tell me where to get the silicone baking pans... I can't find any of the right size/shape.
Please email gilamonster@npgcable.com if you have that info.... thanks

I do something similar to this. I put my wax in the first time, then when i pop the bullets out i put the wax back in, put the bullets in and throw it in the oven @ 250 until it melts. I just let it heat up with the oven and check it every few minutes. It's real convenient as the bullets just go into the holes from the previous session.

So if you lubricate here, how do you lubricate your bullets when you resize them? do you use the liquid lubricant when you run them thru your sizing dye? Thanks

LOL.....watch this video with the beta audio recognition CC(closed caption) it's freakin' hilarious!
how well does this lube work in hot weather? ...cold weather? does it melt? get sticky, or too hard? I'd appreciate it. Thanks

I shoot this lube in all weather conditions here in CA. From 40 degrees to 104 dry degrees. I have had no problems.

great... although for some reason my lube didn't "take" the color of the two red crayons...It looked red until it solidified and then went to a whitish color...don't know what i did wrong, used a double boiler setup too...oh well, Thank you for the family recipe!

Color ends up more pink than bright red. Did you use real crayola crayons? Don't sweat it, color should not be a problem though! Thanks for your comments.

Can I use this lube formula to flux my alloy?
Thanks again.

I don't think I would. I would just use straight bee's wax or straight parrafin. Use a "pea" size piece for 10 lbs of hot lead and stir it in well, then skim off the dross. This will smoke and may flame up, so be ready and always be very carefull!
