I’ve been using LLA to tumble lube cast 222 bullets (Lee C225-55-RF) . All works good but leaves a filthy mess in the barrel - takes about 10 patches per shot to clean and if I don’t immediately it attracts moisture and rusts. Is there a good alternative for low vel rifle bullets (3.5gr AS70N - behaves like a HV 22LR)? I want to tumble lube as I get good accuracy using these as cast and it’s really quick and easy. I lubrisize bigger bullets with Beaver Grease which is fantastic (barely more dirty than jacketed), but frankly I can’t be bothered with these little one! I’m in Australia so off the shelf options are limited.
I’m reluctant to get into PC as I’d need the oven etc., likewise other high tech coatings. I like the performance of LLA just not the aftermath quick and easy. I lubrisize bigger bullets with beaver grease which is fantastic (barely more dirty than jacketed), but frankly I can’t be ****ed with these little ones.
