I must admit to making my own bullet lube. 60% beeswax, 30%avocado oil, 10% hoglard. Smear it on toast It's perfectly edible.

That's good to hear. I think I will see about borrowing his mold. I already powder coat buckshot pellets and pistol bullets I cast. Thanks for the info.


It might be lonely at the top, but it's a bitch at the bottom.
