Trying different bullet lube is so important !

[Nath]

Now I ain't no cast bullet user (yet) but today at work I had the job of punching 1" thick rubber with a 15mm punch and was thus getting big airgun pellet shaped stampings so for fun I got some stainless tube that the pellet were a snug fit in and hand held an air line to the breech. Using young Tom to work the tap it was popping them out good
The thing is what a difference lube makes! Moose milk was good and so was neat oil but there was most certainly a difference and it made me wonder if say a cast bullet shooter has bad luck with a combo if he changed the bullet lube it may just make the difference!

What ya say?

Did the same thing with IIRC 3/8ths x 3/8ths inch steel slugs from a punch press..a little paper around the slug.. inserted in seamless 1/2 inch pipe threaded to accept pipe reducer & plumbed to the air spray nozzle...made a nice dent in the steel siding from about 20ft.. oiled the paper.. next shot through the siding

You Subjects had best be careful what you say, lest you end up like Mr. Luty....

That said, He does have some really cool "smoothbore projectile launcher" ideas...
