I understand that you're using a sizer and a temperature controlled preluber... is this lube too stiff to rub into the grooves of a hand cast bullet like a Lee REAL or a TC MaxiBall if not heated to a certain degree?

BPS
Slightly Rounded means just a Heaping Teaspoon not leveled.

I melt my lube in a 1.25qt crock pot. You can use a smaller crock pot if you have it. Once the lube is melted, I then dip the bullets using a clear plastic tube. (Insert the bullet up to the first grove). Remove the bullet, wipe the bottom of the bullet to remove the wax on a rag/towel that is lying flat on your table, and repeat the process until all bullets are coated. I then insert all of the bullets into my sizing die which removes all excess wax and sizes the bullets. I then collect all of the excess wax from the bottom of the sizing die and put it back into the crock pot for the next time.
