Do you mean "Frankford Arsenal"? Good stuff, but used in a mold you as
get slightly undersized boolits. I use a tiny smidge of Kroil as a
mold release.


I think I recall you're using Lee molds (aluminum). When you say a
smidge, how do you apply it? Q-tip??? Does it have to "burn out"
over a few bullets before they stop being wrinkled like oil does, or
does it work from the get go? Do you have to reapply it during a
casting session?
