gypsynolan said:old trick i learned about reloading. get yourself a block of parafin(sic) wax; u can buy it at any grocery store in the canning dept. roll your bullets in it when you r reloading. keeps gun from jamming. also easiest/cheapest way to reload is to use LEE loaders.most accurate too.

Out of curiosity gypsynolan, are you talking about rolling just the bullet or the whole cartridge, and how does rolling the bullets in parafin keep the gun from jamming?
well I'm waaaaay over my quota, then...stupid is only allowed at the loading bench every 10 years
The last time I stuck a case was ... umm.. two or three nights ago.
Forgot to swap the shell holder.
I haven't stuck one due to lack of lube in 15 years. Been using RCBS #2 lube since day 1, except for big batches of 223, I use some spray & roll stuff. Forgot who makes it off the top of my head. Don't like that spray stuff as much. Doesn't seem to save any time over grabbing a handful and rolling them myself on the pad.
also easiest/cheapest way to reload is to use LEE loaders.
