    Add some tin in the form of 50/50 solder you don't need much one stick to 10 kg is enough, and use a good bullet lube

    @shooternz what size(weight) is one stick?

    What lube do you recommend? I made mine from shortening and beeswax (recipe from online)

    The standard stick of solder is 195 grams, I source mine from the local Engineering suppley shop,
    I import my lube from the States,
    look op Beaver grease on Trade Me I think it is still listed, there is Lyman lube available a Gunshop can order it easy enough
    I think I have a couple you can have it is too soft for what I do.
