12 gauge Slugs average price

Some slug loaders buy a roll crimper. I'm just getting into it so I'm no expert.

I trim about 2/3 of the crimp away with scissors and just use my two crimp stations on my Lee Load All.
 
I'm no car guy, but apparently lead wheel weights are becoming a thing of the past.

My dad reloads, and his local Canadian Tire dealership saves up the lead wheel weights for him...

Hey, it is a good idea, and don't hesitate to contact your local 'wheels' source & have them save up the lead for you... To them, it is just a waste item. ;)

Wheel weights may have a bunch of zinc in them as well as oppose to pure lead shot/ect.

An YES you need to lubricate the mold, best way I've been told and it works great is to just burn a wax candle and blacken up all of the areas lead will make contact with as the wax in the smoke does it perfectly.

Also where the mold notches together at the front of it, an then a bit of oil type lube for the part that moves back and forth to cut off the remaining lead.
