Grease cookie

RE: Grease cookie
bob,
in no way being critical,
I am going through this process at the moment myself.
I can see the benefit of soft lube wads, and strongly suspect benefit from plenty of oil.
have you found a cutoff point or a need to adjust the ratios as temperature increases.
with these softer oilier lubes it seems critical to have tight fitting wads.
these lubes seem to bleed oil in the heat, potentially contaminating powder.
they also seem to be able to get in front of the under bullet wad, causing it to stick to the bullet base.
it also seems a good idea for a type of overpowder wad that leaves as much lube in the barrel as possible without sweeping it back out again.
another aspect of the lube wad is to make a perfect gas seal behind the bullet, thus avoiding any gas cutting etc.
keep safe,
bruce.
