So I have been reading around about homemade bullet lube.
Right now I lube cast bullets with carnbeau red(sp?) lube and I really like it. It produces very little smoke and doesn't lead.
I heard that a common lube used for pan lubing bullets is 2:1 beeswax + vaseline... I'd use carnbeau red but from my understand its very difficult to get out of containers and punch bullets out of if used for pan lubing.
The main goal I am trying to accomplish is making a lube that isn't smokey since I shoot IPSC and the worst thing is lots of smoke and sunlight.
It will be used for 200gr 45acp rounds using solo 1000 powder at around 830-840fps.
Is beeswax + vaseline smokey? And if it is what other non-smokey alternatives are there for home made stuff? I have heard to stay away form alox wax since it very smokey.
MIke.
