I bought some casting equipment and some factory cast boolest that a neighbor had. I got 500 158gr SWCHP-.358 500 158gr RN-.358 and 500 125gr RN-.355. I tried cleaning some up with acetone followed by 50-50 vinegar and water. I my goal was to PC these boolets but I can't get them clean enough to take the powder. I tried them with some fresh cast ones that did fine but these black one's were very spotty if they had any on them at all..

Anyone have any ideas?

Tumble lube them and let them fly

I love PC, but in your case, grease is the best approach.
