Moly coating Questions.?

Post by als008 »

To all the shooters out there (benchrest guys) who moly their bullets.
I was just wondering if there was a point to wax coating? i have read that once the bullets are moly coated you should do a wax coating step to help stop the bullets attracting moisture.

I use a Lyman Turbo 1200 tumbler with the ceramic coating media to coat my bullets. Do you need to wax them too?

You don't need the wax...it was only to stop you getting your fingers dirty when handling them.
