My formulation is based on an old 8oz Planters Peanut jar. Using Bens' 30-30-40 formula. I calculated, 2.4-2.4-3.2 ozs. I rounded the 2.4 to 2.5 for the Lundmark and Alox and the 3.2 up to 3.5 for the Mineral Spirits. Does this sound correct??? Or, should I have done differently??
Used an eye dropper to drop 5 drops and swirled 50 Lee 158 grainers for a few minutes and put them on wax paper in a cookie tray. Followed by 50 44 cal 240 gr KSWC HP's. Time dried for 25 minutes and they felt dry with just a hint of tackiness. Temp here in South Western NM is around mid 50's with 35% Humidity. Broke for lunch and came back to check. They pretty much felt the same with maybe a hint less tackiness. However, when I tried to dry my fingers, there was nothing to wipe off. Did I do this correctly. Would appreciate any feedback.
