[QUOTE="SHRTSHTR, post: 1105991, member: 12514"] I ran another batch this evening. This time I put 125 - 300g Bergers in the pill bottle. They came out perfect in my opinion. Let me back up a little. I first cleaned in Acetone. I buy my bullets in the 250 count when I can. I just used a glass beaker about a 1/3 full. I switched about 30 bullets at a time and placed them on a towel. I continued this process until all 125 bullets were cleaned. Very quick process and I was also able to pour Acetone back into my gallon jug. Next, I wore latex gloves to put bullets into plactic bottle. I placed bottle full of bullets into preheated oven without lid for exactly 30 minutes. When I removed bottle from oven, I immediately put in a spoon and a half of HBN. This was large spoon that came with "bullet coating kit". I did level off top of spoon. I did not have HBN heaping. I vibratory tumbled for 45 minutes exactly. When I dumped bullets into strainer, I noticed very little Hbn dust falling though strainer. I placed the bullets on white towel and cleaned excess Hbn off of them. I was very pleased with this process. The bullets were evenly coated and to my surprise.... Even the base of bullets were coated as well. Once again, no media was used in this process only the bullets themselves impacting each other and distributing Hbn. This is the process I have settled on and would like to Thank everyone here that has contributed to my Hbn coated bullets. Thanks Paul for your help! Now I just need to shoot some and get results.
