Casting bullets
I've started casting bullets and 1200-1500 230 gr RN for .45 ACP cast so far. (Along with 130 lbs in 1 lb ingots, so far.) I don't have a luber/sizer yet. I measured several bullets and they all seem to be right 0.451. Is there any reason I can't use some kind of tumble lube and load them as they are? Lube recommendations?
