[QUOTE="RT2506, post: 1059524, member: 10178"] I would notify Midway and let them know what happened. If you shoot them I would get some lube and re-lube them before shooting. You can use one of the softer lubes like RCBS Green or Lee alox and just rub it into the grooves by hand. It takes a while but it works. You can pan lube them. Melt the lube in a double bowler pan or one large tin coffee can half full of water with a smaller can inside to put the lube in placed on some heat source. Place the bullets in a pan and pour the lube in until it covers the grooves. Let it cool and break the bullets out and smooth the lube around the bullet. If you have some or can get some bees wax melt it and mix 50-50 with olive oil. It makes a great bullet lube that works really well with black powder as well as smokeless for pistols. I use this for my BP cartridge 45-70 cast bullets. Keeps leading to nothing and keeps the fouling soft. [/QUOTE]
