    Lee tumble lube boolits + Red Carnauba

    I'm having good success with Glenn Larson's Red Carnauba, so I decided to see if the magic would work on Lee tumble lube bullets. I ran some air cooled, wheel weight 358-158 TL RN and 358-148 TL WC through my Lubrimatic, and loaded them up in 38 special (3.5 Clays and Rem 1 1/2 primer).

    The results were outstanding. Minimal lead in the barrel, excellent accuracy.

    Next up: Going to try water quenching some of these, and bumping them up to moderate 357 magnum loads for a torture test.
