Do you Folks find that the wax on cast gums things up in your magazines, and or other areas? I try and wipe my cast loads down prior to shooting to remove any excess crud.
Thanks

Ken

never had that problem shooting waxed cast bullets in any caliber. I don't wipe them down but if I happen to see a wax booger I'll flick it off. :D

Kenk, my STAR sizer usually doesn't leave aa bunch of lube outside the lube ring, but I do take old socks to wipe my cartridges clean to prevent any issues...

Thanks, there is only a small amount on some but have been cleaning them up in a similar way.

Never had a problem with 9mm or .45 ACP. Only thing I have to watch out for is when taper crimping, sometimes a little squeezes out, and I wipe it away from the rim to ensure that none is there to possibly interfere with headspacing.

I've used a bunch of 155gr commercial cast with AA#7 and a few hundred 200gr that I cast with White Label Lube BAC without any problem.
