Your video was great young man. My father cast and lubed bullets like this and taught me when I was 10 how to lube bullets this way… that was 54 years ago now. We both shot BPCR from 1985 through 1995 when died way too early. Your video shows that you do not need all the fancy garbage to get excellent results as you show. I admit, I cast, powder coat and lube my bullets a different way now, but I remember doing this way for years and spending time with my father. God bless
It's a shame that when we are young (and knew everything) that we didn't realize how precious time was with our parents, as you get older then you do but often times its too late. Hey thanks for watchin'.
@@jeffpattersonmadcityvideos3413 you are welcome sir. My grandfather came to Stephen county Texas in 1901 in a wagon. He worked in his father’s stables rebuilding wagons. In the late 60’s and until his death in 1978, he taught me how to take old pallets, pull and straighten the nails, but then in and old rusty MJB coffee can by size and use the wood to build manufactured wagons he would then sell. He and my father and one of my father’s uncles taught me how to work. I listened and learned so much from all 3 of them. What I would give to have that time back. I have 9 grandkids and only 1 shares my passions. So he gets a lot of attention from me. The others are busy in their own worlds and I understand.
Great video, just got into casting and did a 50/50 with beeswax and petroleum jelly. Then added a small amount of stp oil treatment with leak stop. Haven't shot it yet but am excited. 44 mag 18 grains h110, 300 grain bullet. Was 310 grains but with the alloy it got lighter.
What I do is after the first batch has cooled off I take the bullets out and put the new warm bullets back in the holes and they melt the lube around them selves. That way I don’t have to remelt the lube every time.
Is this for black powder? I’ve done it for black powder using half bees wax half beef tallow (lard) I must be doing something wrong because it quite soft and doesn’t stick in the grooves.

Sounds good, thanks for watching.
Interesting. I have never cast bullets but enjoy reloading rifle rounds
It's all good.
Good idea there I'll have to try that
Hey thanks for watchin'.
Great video, a friend got me into shooting Elmer Keith semi wadcutter 240 gr. 44mag. 400 rounds a week. Thought he used a waxing tool
I don't know what that would be.
What I do is after the first batch has cooled off I take the bullets out and put the new warm bullets back in the holes and they melt the lube around them selves. That way I don’t have to remelt the lube every time.
I've done that too.
What’s the purpose for it. Thanks.
Is that to help seat them in the case.
It's lubes the barrel.
Thumbnail Looks like a Marines lunch box
That's right.

Lard is the problem, it won't get hard like the wax will. You can use it on any lead bullets.
Did you try powder coating too?
Not yet.
Gas treatment?
Yep helps keep it all together, hey thanks for watchin.
Gulf wax is paraffin wax
That's right.
