I got two 25 oz containers of this stuff a year or two ago and have barely even used a half an inch of one of the containers. I was going to make my own lube but this stuff was ~10$ a container!
( I've probably tumble lubed up ~2000 tips )
So far I've found the following uses for Dralox:
1: cast boolit tumble lube ( duh )
2: Sizing wax for swaging bullets, either apply wet and swage or tumble the lead tips and let them dry then swage them. I tried one lead tip without lube just as a comparison and this stuff makes it immensely easier.
3: Lube your lee bullet molds on the alignment and sprute pins. ( Lee actually told me to lube them with their Alox, but this stuff works just as good )
4: Resizing lube for rifle cases. I took a small dab on a cotton cloth and wiped the cases before sizing them, 303 British was resizing effortlessly. I tumbled afterwards to remove any wax.
So yes a bit of good feedback for a great and economical product, Any other uses you guys have for this stuff?
