I am about to embark on loading the 310 Cadet and would like some advise on what bullet lube to use. I don't have a luber/sizer anymore so it will be done by hand. All my previous lead bullet loading was paper patch which will not work it this case.


Never rode a bull, but have shot some.

I tumble lube mine with Lee's liquid alox.

Old basic method; stand them up in a pan of melted lube; cut them out with a cookie cutter made from a fired case. And the base cut off. I use SPG lube.

what do you have?
beeswax cut with number-2 chassis grease or Vaseline [2-3 to 1 or so] will work just fine.
just wipe it in the lube groove by hand.

dpcd method was what we used in college when we were as poor as church mice + eating beans, rice, + an occasional deer. We used paraffin to melt in a pan + cookie cutter them out + loaded with a Lyman caliper tool. I now have an RCBS lube/sizer + use Veral Smith's blue LBT lube.


Never mistake motion for action.
