Time for another video series. I got asked for one about how to resize and lube cast boolits on the cheap. So, we did it. BTW, I assume that most readers of the CastBoolits forum already know this stuff, so as with my other vids, this is really aimed at the casting beginner.
This is a two-part video series. Part 1 goes into sizing the boolit. We use a Lee resizing die mounted on an inexpensive single-stage press. Part 2 goes into lubing. We use the tumble-lube method here, basically because I find it very convenient to use this method, especially when doing so in volume.
The example boolit is a 0.358" LRNFP with traditional lube grooves, i. e. not a so-called "tumble-lube" type. Yes, TL'ing traditionally grooved projectiles works and yields excellent results, including with beveled-base bullets.
As always, they are available on my Web site for free download. They are also available on the YouTube channel "sfliberal".
