    LLA on Buckshot?

    I am out of graphite and I have about 4lbs of #4 Buckshot that I cast and I need to load it. Has anyone used Lee Liquid Alox on their shot to reduce leading? How well did it work? and did it create any problems?

    Thanks

    Interesting idea, would like to hear the outcome. Should be easy to apply. I have several unused bottles of LLA, may try this.

    I load buck in shotcups normally. Probably help in the brass shot gun shells.

    Save your time, money and energy and instead use a wad so the buck shot has no contact with the barrel. You might want to lubricate the wads with motor mica. Half a spoon of motor mica in a plastic bag with 50 to 75 wads now shake it well and load.
    Hope it helps
