How many bullets can you lube?
Hello, new guy here, I have a question I haven't seen addressed, a pretty basic one.
If you have a Lyman or RCBS lubrisizer that uses the hollow cylinder lubes sticks, or you pour own melted lube into it, about how many .44/.45 caliber SWC bullets can you expect to lube on one fill-up of the reservoir?
Thanks,

Weigh 100 lubed bullets and weigh 100 non-lubed of same bullet. The difference is roughly your lube weight per 100, call it A.
Weigh a tube of lube, call it B.
Divide the tube weight B by the lube weight in 100 bullets A, call that C (C=B/A). That gives the number of 100 bullet lots you can lube. Say C=10.5, then total bullets lubed is 10.5x100=1050
...we could also do this like Archimedes in the tub but the above way is close enough LOL.
