lately ive been surfing the web looking for commercial lube for some lead t/c maxi balls that i have that arent lubed. the more i read this forumn i realize part of traditional muzzleloading is making your own bullets, your own lube and accessories. so here i am i called hobby lobby in town they have granual bead beaswax in natural and white for 7.99 and the block beeswax for 14.99 in natural or white. ill go for natural. Ive read where you can mix 50-50 with crisco, ive also read where you can mix 60-40 with crisco. here in texas it can be in the 100s, however ill be hunting hogs in the early am and evening and cooler months all day. what formula do you men recomend. i dont want to buy commercial lube i want to give it a shot, if i fail so be it i can always ad more of one or the other to get it equaled out.
Do you use this as a pan lube or just rub it into the grooves. ive seen where people have put a bit of olive oil in there as well.
at first i thought of buying the lee alox and tumbling them. then i did some reading and it was 50-50 on the positives and negatives. thank you for any imput yall may have
