    Thanks @shooternz.
    Ok. So to get this straight in my own head.....If I buy cast lead projectiles they will be coated in wax? If I shoot them subsonic, I can clean out powder residue (with a carbon remover) and there should be no lead fouling. If there is lead fouling it must be scrubbed out mechanically (perhaps with a neutral lubricant) as opposed to using a chemical solvent? (like you would with copper).
    Experience. What you get just after you needed it.
