alox bullet lube mix

TUMBLE LUBER'S
Get a can of johnsons floor wax "comes in a metal can ace hardware" and mineral spirits. 
The ratio is 45% wax/45% Alox/10% mineral spirits..
Cook low heat wax until its liquid, add Alox MIX WELL!!! Dont use flame for heat "electric is your friend" finally stir in spirits... 
Whole process about 20min. That wax will smoke so do it in garage or outside.
Then tumble as normal.
Should have no probs pushing bullets to 1500fps no leading.
For tumbling, any container "cool whip, peanut butter, etc" about 50 bullets, cpl tbl spoons of "mix" shake for about a min.
Experiment with quantities, you want bullets to have a light film.
PRIOR TO LUBING.....Heat the mix in microwave cpl secs, and the bullets heat in oven or hair dryer or heat gun, not so hot you cant touch em, about 100°..
Set bullets aside to dry, load as normal, minimal to no build up on dies, I have no build up Issues with this mix...
