And they probably will not call you either. Since Taurus.net is not an "official company website", I highly doubt that a Taurus employee will respond to a post on that forum. Unless there is a...
I also am shooting the Lee 400gr cast from wheelweights and water dropped from my SRH. I am pan lubing using Felix lube then loading them on top of 20gr of Lil-Gun, using CCI LP Mag primers.

I put my pan of Darr lubed boolits in the freezer to harden the lube, pop the boolit filled lube cake out of the pan, hold it in the palm of my hand, and gently tap the boolits loose with a small...
No I havn't, and since I am happy with the results I am getting -w- the Lil Gun, I don't think I will. (Have about 5 lb on hand just for the .480)
I am loading the Lee 400g, pan lubed with Felix lube, over 19g of Lil Gun using CCI Mag LP primers, and am seating the boolit in the grove closest to the nose which gives an OAL of 1.68". I have...
I am running the Lee 400g, pan lubed with Felix lube, over 19g of Lil-Gun, which is giving me 1,100 fps from my 7.5" RSRH. Leading is minimal, I am getting 2" groups at 50yds with this load, and plan...

Not sure on this pic, but I think I have seen the one about the foot. I believe the true story on that one, is he rested the barrel on his foot while shooting sporting clays. I have done the same...
Not yet, but im gonna :bigsmyl2:
I just got into casting and making my own lube this summer, and worked this load up as a plinking load, just to see how hard it was going to be to control leading....
As for an answer to the OP, I am shooting a Lee 400 grain water dropped, pan lubed -w- felix lube, in Hornaday cases, over 19 grain of Lil-Gun, with CCI Mag LP. Out of my 7.5" SRH -w- 2x7 Burris...

mmmm 7,000/700=10 boolits per pound, how about 1 tenth of a pound of lead?
Ooops looks like 2 of us writing a post at the same time, and I got beat to the enter button, and NO that is not too...

I am using it as a pan lube, just had to make a cookie cutter for my boolits. I have found that if you cut the boolits out just after the lube solidifys, it is easier.

This is the formula I used, and wasn't real happy with it for the load I am working up. Don't get me wrong, I am not throwing it out because it might be great for something else, but I had more lead...

Once the sharp edges are wore down a little on my walnut media, I add a couple tablespoons of Turtle Wax red heavy duty polishing compound. Put about a cup of media in a small container, mix the...

I shoot the Lee 200g TL SWC in my .45 and tumble lube with JPW only. I add mineral spirits to thin it out enough to just give the boolit a little color, dries overnight.

Once the lube has set, put the pan in the freezer for about 5 min. The lube cake and boolits should just fall out. Cold lube makes pushing the boolits out of the cake easier too, then just fill the...

Thanks for putting a lot of the tips in a single post. While I was getting everything together to make the lube, I have been cutting all the tips I can find and pasting them into a word doc. Where...

They were, but the mixture was all fomy when I got done adding the soap. After it cooled, I noticed there was a thin layer of cold foam on top of the oil mix, so I stirred it, heated it back up, and...

Just finished cooking up a batch of base, and want to make sure what I have is good before I add any bees wax or lanolin.

Forum: Boolit Lube !
Wonder if the Lanolin Oil would be the way to go for a pan lube since it needs to be a little softer?

If you really want to create a steam explosion, try this:
Drill a small, 1/16" hole about 3/16" deep into a boolit to replicate a bubble in the base, and fill with water. Seal the hole with a small...
