Good News!

I just spoke with Veral Smith by phone. He says he is doing very well except for macular degeneration, but he can see pretty good at a distance. He hopes to be producing bullet lube in a month or so. He’s 82 years old now but not ready to just quit. I hope to do as well when,and if, I reach that age . Harles

Hooray! I need to get another case of LBT Commercial, that will probably be enough to last me as long as I'm around.

 

[Creeker]

Love his lube.

 

[Bazoo]

I'm glad to hear it. While I don't know him, and haven't ordered anything from him yet, I was pretty saddened to learn of his misfortune.

Always good to read good developers and bright minds are still active and not just counting birds.

I have never tried his lube.
Quick Question, does it melt?
and what is the approximate 'melt to liquid' temp

 

[JustJim]

IIRC, the commercial lube (which I've not seen offered for years) was developed so that suppliers could ship lubed bullets and have them arrive with lube still in place. It requires a heater on the lube-sizer. Not sure what the melting temp is, but it does melt--reminds me more of a wax than a grease, but not a hard wax like some other commercial offerings.
