    Poured them out on Walley World plastic sacks and have a box fan blowing on them .

    The box fan works with LLA to accelerate " drying " ( LLA never really dries 100% , seems to always stay sticky ) .

    I figure the fan will also help with the JPW ?

    God bless

    I found my JPW today at Meier's. Had to look close, though. It was on a shelf behind a column. $5.19/can.

    I dipped 30 water-quenched and 20 air-cooled .476-400s. I figure this should be enough to test it out. I'm sure glad this post was here! Midsouth is out of LLA and I was going nuts waiting for the backorder. If I hadn't found this thread, I probably would have had to have a Lube-Sizer overnighted to me. I can't wait to send some of my own cast boolits down range!

    I think I'm getting hooked!

    I would guess that the petroleum distillates in the JPW would foul your powder charge unless you shot them right away. Anyone have any experience with this happening. I've had it happen in a cap and ball that was left loaded through most of deer season. I was using a 50/50 mix of petroleum jelly and bees wax
