IIRC the strips soaked in ballistol/water mix benefit from being laid flat on a non porous surface to dryI was able to locate some tight weave cotton material .015 thick so I bought two meters of the stuff it’s 60” wide. I cut some into 1-1/2” strips and made a ballistol/water mix then soaked them and hung them to dry. I also cast 100 410gr 533 dia Minnie balls then an experiment. I paper patched 40 to see how they’ll work in my TC Renegade. ( I have two barrels, one is a stock 1-48” and the other is a green mtn 1-66” for PBRs). So, as soon as I can, I’ll be out testing my minies
(or they will dry in a non uniform manner with a differing amount of lube end to end). If your strips produce variable results you might try that.
