Coated bullets

1) If lead bullets mess up the dies, you have way too much lube. If you cast your own, a very light coating of Lee Liquid Alox does the trick.
2) Of the coated bullets I have tried, the "best" are Precision Bullets. They are swaged, so they are very consistent in weight and dimensions, and they are quite accurate. They use 92/6/2 alloy, so they are more than hard enough.

They work very well.

I like them better than lead/wax lube, and even better than plated

Bayou
SNS
Missouri
Precision
Blue-bullets

all work well.

They keep my Dillon XL650 well fed.
