A thick Zip*Lock bag with a little corner cut and used like a cake decorator works pretty well also.

Ive done that also. easier to mix as you can put the 2 parts in and kneed it to mix. work the air out of the bag zip and kneed. You have alot less air in the mix. If using Bisonitte it warms enough to soften the bag some be careful. The syringe lets you pressure fill grooves and deep areas. On the service rifles grooves are cut down the shoulders 1/8" deep to give added strength. I have done this on bolt actions also.
Both work well and have advantages
The solid soft lead bullet is undoubtably the best and most satisfactory expanding bullet that has ever been designed. It invariably mushrooms perfectly, and never breaks up. With the metal base that is essential for velocities of 2000 f.s. and upwards to protect the naked base, these metal-based soft lead bullets are splendid.

Forget everything you know about loading jacketed bullets. This is a whole new ball game!
