Bowl Wax as Bullet Lube

A while back, I asked on this Forum whether anyone had tried using toilet bowl wax for bullet lube. I got various recommendations on recipes for homemade lubes that use it, but no one seemed to have used the stuff straight.

Well, I finally got around to giving it a try, since I finally ran the old lube out of my sizer. I got a ring of Fluidmaster Bol-wax, and used it straight.
The stuff goes on very much like Saeco Gold, and requires minimal heating ( no heating if you lube on a warm day ).

The proof of the pudding is in the shooting - and my target velocity .45ACP loads shoot every bit as well as Saeco Gold or Green do. Without a bit of leading. So, now I know to by my bullet lube in the plumbing aisle!

:D

I found the rings to be TOO Sticky by themsleves. I do use them in my mix with Parafin and Bees way a little soap and some Car wax. Stuff I end up with sticks to the bullet great and I get great accuracy from Hand guns and mosr rifle loads. J.Michael
