    is full and complete no more splotchy, freckled looking boolits
    try it once and you will never go back
    What about the base of the bullet?

    That's the single reason I still tumble coat most of my bullets. As shown in above post I PC the entire HP bullet and the same for gas check bullets, but there is no practical way to spray a regular bullet without having either the base or nose left bare.

    This was my exact experience.
    Sometimes it takes a second box of boolits to clear my head.

    I'm on a budget (and cheap). Can I use a tire compressor with the HF unit?

    A small air compressor capable of providing a steady
    minimum constant 1 cfm at 5-8 psi is required.
    I usually find that about 15 PSI is much better
    The air supply must be completely dry, and the use of a moisture trap
    or desiccant system is strongly recommended.
