I just started reloading 3 months ago , 380acp,38/357mag,45acp,303 British & 8 mm 1916 German Mauser for now . Looks like a found a new use for my wife's Ultra Sonic jewelry cleaner ! My homemade belt tumbler broke again yesterday , having a hard time finding the right belt & O-Rings don't last ! Off to HF to buy a tumbler . I use a cut up dryer sheet w/ Mothers liquid leaner wax ( shot glass ) , I got the corn cob media @ Walmart that they use for animal bedding , cheap & suits mine needs . I also got a recipe of Youtube for case lube , lanolin & 100 percent rubbing alcohol , put the cases in a baggy spray , let them dry & it works well on the cheap . Lanolin is a little $ but you don't use much . I still use my RCBS case lube pad on occasion . Here's a question , anyone got a recipe using 148 gn cast lswc's using HS-6 powder ? I have a bunch of Hs-6 & 1000 rnds of Wc's . Iv'e check all over & can't find anything . I know it's not the right powder but I already loaded 1000 rnds of 38 spl's in different powder weights & want to load some of these Wc's in 357 & really don't want to buy more powder . But might end up buy some 231 or Unique because of the burn rate of HS-6 . But it shoots awesome in 38 spl .
