Bullet Mold
Ok, i am going to try and pick the brain of all who have been shooting all along for the past ten years. I have been away from shooting all together, recently purchased a 45-70 and also have a 45-100 coming (always wanted one) in Shiloh Sharps for the 100 and a the 4570 is a C Sharps Highwall. I do not have any 45 cal bullet molds in my stash from when I was shooting just a couple 38 & 40 cal that Fred Cornell cut for me. So a couple questions, I have some Paul Mathews lube left and a pound of Dan T's white lightning. What is a go to lube as I don't know that these are available any longer and what recommendation do you have for a bullet mold for silhouette in 45cal. any help will be greatly appreciated as Myself and a couple of new shooters prepare for the upcoming season Ridgway.

The sauce 645 would be a pretty hard to beat bullet for an all-round silhouette bullet. Bullshop's Nasa lube is one of my favorites.

Charlie, looks like Semtav gave the right link. Email them tell them how much you want, they'll reply back with the cost + shipping, send them a check and in a few days a priority mail envelope shows up with a cake or cakes of your lube in it.

Chaz,

For what it's worth, prior to Dan Theodore's untimely passing we had many discussions on bullet lubes. In one of the last discussions he confided to me that he considered DGL lube the next best thing to White Lightning for blow tubing.

RE: Bullet Mold
Wayne,
Just read your response and I'm wondering is the lube you use for blow tubing different than wiping? The last year I shot, which was 2005 I was wiping and using white lightning which I still have a pound of. Prior to that I used Paul Mathews lube which I still have some of that in a pint container. I'm going to try the Bullshop NASA lube is that good for pan lubing? I feel like I'm starting all over again.

RE: Bullet Mold
Bullshop is at it's best pan lubed. But works very well thru the lubrisizer. It also very good with a blow tube, hydrates very easy and stays soft, but at the same time wiping will work quite well.
