I am using the 45/45/10 lube sold by lsstuff.com. I like it because it doesn't dry tacky like alox seems to.
First, my .44 loads leave a little leading around the last inch to 2 inches of the barrel. I understand that this is usually due to insufficient lube. I have tried applying with the bullets and the lube warm but it seems to put such a thin layer on that you can't even see it. I have also tried applying it cool and it seems to leave a really thick layer. In both cases, I have the leading issue.
I do drive these bullets to about 1375 fps but they are about 20 bhn and are sized slightly more than 1 thousands oversize.
Any ideas?
