Hi all I have a new 1894 Marlin in lc45 and a 255gr frn mold and i need a receipy for some bullet lube for smokeless powder and a way to apply it to the bullet and I dont have a sizer .

TIA Nim

Bullet Lube:

1 pound paraffine wax
1 pound petroleum jelly
3 oz. STP Oil Treatment

melt together in a double boiler



Search "pan lube" for a way to apply without a sizer.

After you cast your bullets put them in a plastic tub and squirt some of Lee's Liquid Alox on the tub and roll your bullets around in it. Wearing a pair of disposable examination gloves, spread the bullets out on a wax paper sheet and set them on their base until they dry. The LLA will dry out to a golden film in the bullet. Then all you have to do is load them in your cases and shoot.

Grapeshot has the right idea. I too have a 1894 Marlin in 45 LC and have done this. I also use latex gloves, lubing the bullets in a plastic tub and putting them out to dry on wax paper. Depending on humidity you can handle in a couple of hours. A bottle of Liquid Alox is cheap and will do thousands of bullets. My bullets drop out of the mold at 454 dia and my bore is 451. No leading at all with 9 gr of Unique.

I use 'Liquid Alox' also... Works great.
A little goes along way, You DON'T have to get them (golden brown)
About 25 to 27 drops of LQ in a cool whip tub will do 100 of your bullets.
