Goodsteel-My accuracy was good before CR. My bullets are sized for the gun, but I was still getting some leading. I'm not since I started using CR.

Sorry, I didn't get right back to this, buttt
Yes I can do 2500+ in Green and do half and half hollow and solid if you want.
I've got a Black Powder lube in the small melter right now, but could get to the Green in a Day or so. Just let me know, or let the wife know, she keeps me pointed in the right directions some times :) LsStuff@aol.com is her email, or PM me here. I'm trying to get on here a couple times a day to check on the brass sales.
If you didn't find it in the swappin and sellin then I have about 1500# of inside range brass that is almost sorted and bagged. We have 380, 9mm, 40, 45acp, 223. There is also some 10mm, 357 Sig and a few others that I'll have to see how much of each we end up with. I'll try to keep it updated on the swappin and selling page.
Blackpowder Lube? Which one and will it be on the store site soon?
Black powder lube........Got it.

Yes we do have a New Black Powder Lube. We are calling it BP-01 for now.
It is not mine but, It's a recipie from a friend in Scotland who said that I could make and sell it.
In his tests he shot 30 rounds through his muzzle loader without cleaning and still had reasonable accuracy and the fouling was still soft. He used Swiss ffg.
I tried it in my Sharps 45-70 , 32" bbl, with Swiss ffg and the 535gn Lyman. I went 15 rounds without using a blow tube, wet patch or anything and the group size stayed about the same. The fouling was soft enough to allow for a quick and easy cleanup at the end.
It does contain a small amount of Alox 350, but it did not cause any problems.
For now, we have it in 1# blocks for $16.50. It is not in the online store yet, but I will try to get that done soon. For now you can email us at LsStuff@aol.com or send me a PM here, but I don't check my PMs as often as I should.
Now I find you've got a black powder lube - just got my order from you with the lubes I ordered. Great service - THANK YOU!

I'm still new at cast bullets. I'd like to try the 45:45:10 mix but wonder can it be used on casts with larger lube grooves, like .223 and .308?
Yes, film lubes can be used on conventional designs.
I have been shooting the LsStuff 50/50 for a few years now and have not had any problems in the .32-20, 32 S&W Long, 38 Special, 357 Magnum, 9mm, 41 Magnum, 44 Magnum, 375-JDJ, 411-JDJ, 45 Colt, 45 ACP, 30-30, 300 Win Mag, 35 Remington, 10mm Auto, 454 Casull, and 45-70. I'm sure I missed a few calibers in there but you get the idea.
I can't wait to try the BP-01 on the 535gr bullets. Will try pan lubing.
Whats the best , less leading, most accurate, and least messy lube for 9mm?
Bac or carnauba red? Cant decide what to order.
CR is a harder lube that requires heat. BAC is softer and doesn't require heat. I don't know what your opinion of "least messy" means. But I'm assuming you will want CR because it's a harder lube.
I have found it take very little heat. I just set my Lyman 4500 up in the back yard in the morning and by 10 O'clock in the summer she's ready to go with no heater. In the winter well then I need to use the heater. But I do most of my cast stuff in the summer months.
I bought some of the 2700 and I set my lube heater for 105 degrees and it works great.
I had tried olive oil also. And lanolin. I recently (more from convenience) tried semi processed coconut oil. The thick gooey smells like coconut stuff. It's slipperier, and smells better than burnt olive oil. I've used STP, 2stroke oil and ATF before- all with similar nothing- special results.
> Used White Label Lube this weekend. Barrel fouled and leaded. Miss my SPG. Was BPCR lube. Another friend borrowed 5 shots and had same results. Do you need a fouling shot? Looking for lube stars? You have the symptoms of a rough barrel. Better cleaner lube isn't working for you. If you don't get a machinist to check for straightness and finish, I'd try a few firelaps.
If its that bad, you can always load one copper jacketed round at the bottom of every magazine to keep the barrel clear until yoou can solve the problem.
What are you loading for? Bore dia? Alloy? sized bullet dia? This will help you nail it down.
