I had been using 4 grains of Unique with these 158gr LRN bullets I cast earlier this year. Use straight lead I got from a guy in Bucyrus Ohio.
Well, they did pretty good, hardly any leading, so last evening I loaded some with 5 grains of Unque to see if they would lead.
Again they seemed to do fine. Didnt see much lead at all, definitely no more than with the 4gr loads.
At what point would pure lead bullets start to lead the barrel and around the forcing cone normally ?
I used Lee Liquid Alox to lube the bullets, Ive heard really good things about it, so Im guessing that the LLA is probably the reason Im not cleaning half a pound of lead off the Ruger.
