I've read that bullet lube used on lead bullets can really cause a lot of smoke. Trying to get a lot of smoke out of my smokeless rounds.

Dip,lube with lee alox , apply about 3 coats . Won’t rival black powder but nobody is going to think you’re shooting powder coated bullets either .
Depends on the lube. Alox tends to be smoky from pistols. I dont really notice smoke while shooting my riffles. SL-68B appears to barely smoke. Simple lube isnt bad. 45/45/10 doesnt smoke all that much. Paper patching and PC doesnt smoke.

It's for SAA shooting. I use 7-8gr of Unique and it's pretty smokey but I'm looking to see if I can go a bit more with different lube. Right now I'm just using http://missouribullet.com/details.ph...5&secondary=17 Not sure what lube they use that is blue?Quote:

Can I tumble lube what I have from Missouri Bullet Co. in Alox? Heck for that matter can I tumble lube copper coated bullets in Alox? I wouldn't see why not but I figured I'd ask you guys.
yes, you can tumble lube Missouri Bullets in Alox as well as copper coated bullets.
Alox is the smokiest common lube ingredient that I know of.
