[QUOTE="jfloyd, post: 2102781, member: 73643"] The coating does replace the need to use a lube. Sizing is another issue but those Bullets were likely too small before the coating process. I run 36 grain of IMR4198 in my 16” 458 SOCOM and get 1600 FPS with a 405 bullet so you are probably pushing 1900-2000 I would guess. I’d try a hand ful and add layers of coating to get larger diameters to find what works. You might still be too hot for a CB alloy bullet. If so, slow it down some. Keep us posted. [/QUOTE]
