    Ranch Dog T/L Rifle bullets

    How much LLA are you guys applying to the ranch dog tumble lube rifle bullets? If I remember from his old website, it seemed like he really laid it on.

    He liked dip lubing with alox if memory serves me. I either traditional lube them or powdercoat/hitek coat them. Don't like alox.

    Make up a batch of Ben's Liquid Lube, three light coats is all you will ever need.

    I think RD dip lubed, but he used a potpourri (sp?) heated container that would thin the LLA.

    If you're fortunate enough to find the components to make it.

    I just use lite 2x with BLL for rifle (30/30), no leading. I have not gotten good results unless GCd - for rifle. Pistol is OK 1x. PB. I (choke, choke) quit using straight LLA a long time ago. Same with the LLA/paste (recluse) lube. Ludmark liquid floor wax seems to work but sold in Gal. IIRC - way to much $$.
    PC is just to much less $$ and easy peasy.
    Whatever!
