[QUOTE="dok7mm, post: 1639906, member: 90080"] Cleaning all the contamination off the bullets is critical. I use lacquer thinner to wash everything except the tipped bullets. On the plastic tipped ones, I clean them with corncob media in the tumbler for about an hour, because it's hard to get rid of ever trace of soap. I roll the plastic tips in a clean towel to clean any dust off. I still use Tubb's mixture of hbn. I started with it 4 years ago and have had good, consistent results. I heat them @ 190* and use the prescribed amt of hbn. Tumble about 2-1/2 hrs, roll in a towel to polish and sack them up in freezer bags. [/QUOTE]
