[QUOTE="Orange Dust, post: 1128787, member: 92702"] I have learned a lot from this forum, but never posted before. I know several of you use HBN. I've been using it for awhile. It is amazing in my .224TTH. I have some guns that could care less. The question is I've been playing with it in a 300RUM. Little bullets coat easily and come out grey. Long 30 cal bullets seem to be a challenge for me. I clean them with acetone, then tumble in clean corncob. Put them in pill bottles and vibrate. Bullets alone, doesn't stick. Bullets and steel shot, bad idea, eats the bullets as much as coating them. Last time I tried mixing 25, 30 cal with 100 .224 V-Max's. After 2-1/2hrs they looked great until I wiped them with a towel. They have a very thin coat that can only be described as satin clear. $100 question: Is this enough? Anyone know the trick for the even grey look that is so easy to achieve with small calibers. [/QUOTE]
