RE: The Weighed & Sorted Ball Experiment
Semisane...I've experimented with several different lubes and for about 20 years or so used SnoSeal for lube, boot sealer and even dropped it into lead to remove doss when running ball...
About 3 years I made a batch of the bee's wax, castor oil and Murphy's Oil soap that is posted at muzzleloadingforum.com
I've finally settled on that because you can vary the wax and castor oil to the seasons...I made up a pint and looks like it will last a few years...
