What is this Lanolin/Castor oil formulation you speak of? Just 50/50 mix no alcohol?

I got it to work on an older computer with Linux installed and I think GRTools is very promising.
My 7.62x39 load with 123gr FMJ and 27gr 1680 seems to track very close to the books.

I have been destroying my brass with the .327 Federal, I have tried 115gr RNFP with 6.0gr of HP-38 or 11.7gr of H-110. Both these loads were destroying my brass out of a 4.2" SP101.
I have settled...
So I went and bought the Lee 311-100-2R and 311-93-1R since Midway has free ship for $49 on Lee products. Going to try tumble lubing these first before I shave the 311-100-2R on the mill. There was a...

I looks for replace reservoir by going to the thrift store and look at their selection of plastic drink bottles. Oftentimes you will find something that fits with some minor fitting.
