I know there are specially shaped bullets these days that are specifically designed to be tumble lubed (such as having narrower and shallower lube grooves than bullets designed for traditional lube) but what I want to know is if it's possible to tumble lube traditional shaped bullets too instead of hand-lubing or pan-lubing. Because I'd much rather do that than those two methods. I have some liquid alox sitting around that I feel would work really well for this, but if anyone has any experience tumble-lubing traditional bullets, I'd like to know how well it works.
One thing that might be relevant is that the bullets I'm considering tumbling are part of an experimental batch; 100 9mm bullets made out of pure, unmixed linotype. So these are REALLY hard bullets that I don't expect to expand in the bore AT ALL. I'm not entirely sure if that'd make a difference in whether tumble lubing would work here, but any insight would be nice.
