Now that's interesting Johnmorris. I've used mica to lube case necks for reloading, but never heard of it being used as a supplemental bullet lubricant. Does it roll on evenly? Have you found it improves accuracy or increases velocity? How are the bullets to handle with the mica on them? I suspect it would stick to a bullet even without the alox layer. Have you tried it that way.

No just with lube, I have used it for years in rifle and Muzzy bullets. The bullets are not greasy and I find leading is really reduced. Motor mica also stands the temps involved. I also tried Moly paste but that is more expensive Moly lube also works on cast rifle bullets. Moly powder will also stick to bare lead and I have used that. It really does not affect accuracy
