Has anyone experienced ill effects from Teflon?
I realize the possibility of a problem, but somewhere some plumber has heated an old teflon wrapped pipe with a blow torch to loosen it. Also they used to make teflon coated bullets - the so called "cop killers". Never heard of any problems.
The teflon taped bullet idea sounds interesting.

Here is why teflon is an interesting idea to me.
I'm trying to load CBs for a Garand with a new .308 barrel. Of course with the short neck I'm going to have to seat my bullet (150 Grn) well into the case so the nose will just barely touch the lands. I'm concerned about powder sticking to the messy lube even killing some of the powder over time.
I'm not crazy about idea of using fillers of any kind. I have thought of lubing just the forward gease grooves leaving the ones sticking into the case bare. But if the teflon works, that might just solve the problem.
Any thoughts?
Thanks,
Sherlok
