Watching Liquid Alox Bullet Lube Dry...

[j8064]

...Ranks up there with watching paint dry!

But when you're a committed reloader and boolit caster, it's all part of the process. The good news is when you use Alox to lube boolits, you can multitask and do things like cook clam sauce in a crock pot to put on linguini for dinner.

With a new .44 mag mouth to feed, having another 700 or so boolits on hand made good sense. Half are lubed and sized with gas checks. Still have some to go, but the lube is now dry.

Casting your own boolits? Cheap. Reloading your own range ammo? Cheaper (and better) than factory ammo. The aroma of Alox burning off the boolits at the range?...

Priceless!

Ah, just the perfect hint of Alox in the linguini. Reminds me of a day at the range.

Very Nice!

I look forward to shooting some of those bullets and maybe a plate of leftover linguini.

Are those Lyman .44 ? I borrowed my neighbors Lyman .44 mold once and cast about 100 bullets. Lubed, resized them with GC's and went to load them in some nice pretty brass and the bullets fell right through the mouth of the brass. I casted another 25, did no resizing and they fit perfectly.

I have not casted anything in a few weeks, but, I do have to get some more 20 Gauge slugs done.

They look like Elmer's bullet to me. 44, 250 gr.

Looks like a Lee 240 grain to me.

BTW, I spread my Alox lubed bullets on tin foil in the basement and have a small fan blowing on them. This makes them dry in half the time.
