Look at this link: http://www.midwayusa.com/eproductpage.exe/showproduct?saleitemid=279094&t=11082005

Mica is normally used as a lubricant inside the case neck and that link will explain its use with cast bullets.

I will keep you posted on the TLC311-165-RF, I hope the heck it will be next week.

Thanks RD!

As always RD has tried most of the things that I have questions about and has answers to those questions.

Where do you get your Mica from and what type of Mica is it? I have some that I use to make wax different colours, would that work.

Thanks,

Jerry

I bought it from MidwayUSA. Some guys use corn starch or other materials.

I just placed an order for a pound of Mica with Midway, Thanks for the information.

I have my bottle of Xlox, Mica, Talc, Blue Mica and the need to make some bullets.

Michael thanks for the quality work that you do.

Will this method also work for cast bullets without the micro bands?  I know there is less surface area for the Alox to cling to but it seems like it would work..

The images from the first post seem to have vanished, this was one of the teaching aids that I had for people wanting to do tumble lube.
