First attempts at coating with HbN in a rotary tumbler. Did not wear gloves when washing bullets in soapy water and cleaning SS BBs in alcohol. Did not use heat on 1st attempt. 2nd attempt used gloves. 3rd attempt used heat. Still have problems with coating all of the bullet. Have shinny portions and coated portions.
Last batch I used a small p-nut plastic jar, 2.5# of SS BBs, and 250 40 gr Noslers in .224 cal. Jar is packed in rags centering it in the tumbler and ran for 3 hours. Heated the SS BBs and bullets prior to putting in the jar and ran an electric heater next to the tumbler casing.
Do you have any recommendations for me.
