BAC Lube

[Johnw...ski]

White Label Lube has a product called BAC which is basically 50/50 with some carnuba added. What do you guys think of this lube?

It's supposed to be pretty soft requiring no heat.

Good stuff! I use it in a Lyman 450, no heater needed. I have used it on gas checked bullets in a .35 Rem. up to about 2,000 fps and no leading. Could probably go faster.

My order of BAC just showed up this weekend. It is pretty soft, and seems to work great. I don't have a lubersizer yet, and BAC worked great for pan lubing. When the lube was mostly cooled off, I pulled the boolits out by their noses; each one gave a nice little "pop" sound as it left the lube.
No leading and left my barrel nice and shiny.

I have used both the BAC and Carnuba Red with all my handgun calibers and it has worked great.

BAC is Carnauba Red mixed 50/50 with 50/50 alox/beeswax. Unless I'm mistaken (you know, wrrrrr...).

I've been using it with .38 wadcutters and light loads in a .30-06. It works fine in both. No leading at all at the low velocities I'm using.

[colbyjack]

ive ran it thru my 1911 3k rounds no leading. great stuff and great guy to buy it from. -chris

I bought a sackful, great lube, great price!

Great lube for paperpatching. I have used most everything and none is better.

If not for making my own lube, White label would be my next option.

I used it for my 1911, along with 2500+ and the 50/50. I thought the 50/50 was pretty messy, but the 2500+ and BAC are okay. I think the BAC is a little stiffer than 2500+.

I use BAC for all my Pistol boolits and my rifle boolits up to 2000 fps. I have it in my stars now and they do like a very little bit of heat to get it to flow in my cool basement. I would rate it Low smoke as compared to straight 50/50. I sometimes will add a 1/8 stick of Carnuba Red to the BAC then melt it all together and pour it in my lubersizers for a little stiffer rifle boolit lube. Lar's is a great guy to deal with.

I have been using BAC in everything including 9mm, 30 WCF, 38-55, 357mag and 45 ACP. Works great. Have not had a barrel lead good accuracy from all calibers.

Am I the only person that has to use a heater to get BAC to flow very well??? I swiched from 50/50 to BAC and found it to be much stiffer and that's when I bought the heater. And before anyone asks if I'm reloading in a shack in North Dakota, no, I reload in the house in FL with the A/C set at 75. I moved to the garage where it's usually at least in the 80's and that didn't help much. I will say this though, it doesn't need much heat or you will have a mess.

I set my heater to 90 for BAC. I use quite a bit of it.

I have not found anything that BAC does not work great with. I do have to add a little heat when lubeing in the winter. My loading room is not well heated.

[Shiloh]

My go to lube. In the Upper Midwest winters, heat is necessary to get it moving. In the summer. No issues at all
My 450 is mounted on a quarter inch aluminum plate. 15 minutes from an clothes iron on medium is the trick.

All I use; I generally end up using my heater though. Of course it doesn't get quite as hot up here . I can't remember what its smell reminds me of, but I like it & it's a great lube @ a great price .

I have used both the BAC and Carnuba Red with all my handgun calibers and it has worked great.

This is my experience too. I have gone to Carnuba Red entirely now, when its on...not going to come off . Can't go wrong with either as they are the best lubes out there

[Hardcast416taylor]

After a bit of experimenting I have come up with a variation that works well for me. I melt 2 sticks of Carnuba Red with 1 stick of Bac. I now have a lube that is less sticky yet flows thru my Lyman 450`s with no heat needed. I have used it in various calibers up to the mid 20`s range of velocity.Robert
