Ok, the only thing I cast in the past was roundballs, so the whole lube thing is new to me (other than spit patching).
Today I took some of my new 400gr cast boolits for my 480 & tumble lubed them in Xlox. I took about a teaspoonful of the Xlox & cut it with a dallop of mineral spirits & mixed. I took almost all of it out of the coolwhip container I had it in & oly left a little bit. I lubed about 50 boolits that were not water quenched, then did a seperate batch of 15 more that were. I ended up with a little more on the 1st batch than the last, but neither is what I would call "thick". On he 2nd batch it's just a thin coating that you have to look for to see, but it is uniform. Do I need to do a 2nd coat (no sizing or GCs) or am I done? Is it really that simple????
In one post someone said folks don't trust the Xlox (They said Alox from Lee) straight because it's too easy. It does seem too good to be true!
