Favorite lube

FWFL is the first smokeless-powder bullet lube I ever made myself. It was and is one of the very best recipes for accuracy I ever tested.

Felix flat out told me the future of lubes is polymers.
I jokingly told him I didn't have any polymers laying around since I got rid of that leisure suit with the big lapels.
I think he hurt himself laughing.

Felix is a great lube. It just plain works. My problems were the messiness in storage and the grunge in the gun.

Felix and I had some discussions back when I was making HDPE grease. Problem is wad-fouling syndrome in the rifles. It will be my eternal regret that he didn't live to see the the advancements that have been made with thermoset polymer jackets.

Haha

well its just something new and as lube isnt required with PC its as if you PC instead of lube.

Personally I PC 98% of all My cast. WHY NOT?!? I can stretch my lino much farther as I can cast softer with zero worries or testing altering or adjusting. Softer bullets also expand better and fragment less.
Its not so much a extra step as much as it replaces a step. Instead of in and out with a twist for lube I can use push thru sizing.

Maybe not better to some, but I like it better-plus all the colors! You can use colors for loads or for calibers and if ya dont like colors there is clear!!
