So you lubricate after every use and is kroil still the thing to use?

RCBS 358 in 158 round nose, I shoot IDPA and the round nose work real well with speed loaders, I currently use Lee 150 Gr. in 358 dia. but they don't seem to last long so I thought I would try...

I been at this boolit casting stuff about 5 years now and I'm about to cast with my first ever steel mould so here is the ? whats the difference between casting with aluminum verses steel any tricks...

I know this is a old thread but does anyone know if the Bator has lube grooves or tumble grooves

I don't shoot the 115gr. but with 125gr. and the 147gr. I use HS6 its might not be the cleanest but its not the worse you could do either and I get zero leading with the lone wolf barrels

I use the accurate 147gr. sized at .357 not sure what number it is( I'm at work or I would look) but its the rcbs knockoff with two lube grooves, I can get up around 900fps. without any leading in my...

thanks everbody, I just ordered more CR in solid sticks, I've been useing CR from lars in hollow sticks for everything from 9mm up to 44mag and really like it but I get air pockets with the hollow...

Thanks, btroj

I have been useing hollow stick lube with my star, am I supposed to use solid? will the solid stick cut down on air pockets?

Lathesmith on this site will fix you up with star dies pretty cheep

Wow that is strange! if nothing else I'll defently try it...........Thanks

The mould is not to cold the other cavity throws a perfect boolit, I kept casting untill boolits started to frost then slowed a bit. I used bullplate to lube after the mould was good and hot so that...

Ok, so you guys think its air trapped under the spure plate keeping the lead from entering into the last part of the cavity. That at least gives me a starting point. Thanks a lot, you guys are great

I have a problem with one of my accurate molds its a 9mm 147, Im sure its something I'm doing but I can't figure out what it is. so here is the problem it will not fill clear to the top of one of the...

Someone posted on here awhile back that Bullplate is just 2cycle oil. any truth to that?

I cast for a Glock 23 with the Lee 175gr. with lube groove I use speed green or 60% bees wax/40% vasoline, I use HS-6 powder and keep it under 900fps. I don't claim to be a expert but this is what...

It's not a SS thing, I have security six same thing. I use Pro Shot and chore boy with bronze brush. Just bought a 158 GC mold to try and see if it will cure it. I think I will stock up on aluminum...

Yeah Lloyd, I'm guessing your right, I will not compromise my barrel or accuracy we'll all have to just live with the smoke

Thanks Cajun shooter, I have mine set on a heater I know the screw you refering to, I think I will try to find a fitting and attach a plastic hose to it and empty that way. Dale 53 the lead 125s with...

I mostly shoot 9mm because it cheaper to reload.

If you read the OP I said I shoot indoors (IDPA) and the other guys and gals that I shoot with are starting to complain a little, with HS-6 and white labels 50/50 theirs more than a little smoke and...

I have a star. So you unbolt it from the bench turn it up side down and heat it up?

HS-6 is the powder but the 50/50 really smells bad so I think its mostly the lube

I have carnauba red but the sizer full of 50/50 so it looks like it will be awhile before I can try the red

Has anybody on here figured out witch of the stick lubes smoke less, tried the search with no luck. I shoot indoors and the rest of guys are starting to complain a little, I have white lables 50/50...
