Can you tumble lube a cast bullet like c312 185 1r and get good shooting results?

Or does this process only work for tumble Lube designed molds?

Thanks

I have more lube groove molds than tumble lube molds. I tumble lube both styles, and to date have not had lead deposits in any firearm.

I tumble lube all my cast bullets (twice), including the 185gn Lee with good results and virtually no leading problems.

Thanks for the info guys . I have one ordered plus a .311 sizing die for my mosin. I am going to try the bullet as cast in my lee enfield. I will also use gas checks

Depends on the velocity. Do you have a gas check in place? 0.311 would be too small for my Mosin's.
