I've been loading a lot of Bayou Bullets ... not so much for the bullet/mold design as for the totally encapsulated dry lube used. I haven't loaded any 9mm with the Bayou Bullets, but have in .45 acp ... all the rest I load are revolver rounds. From the 5-6 handguns I've run the B/B's through, there's absolutely no comparison with standard lubed cast bullets. I don't cast my own, so I'm pretty much at the mercy of the casters to provide what I need, and that's not always gonna be a boolit sized exactly to my personal spec's. The difference between standard commercial lubes and the Bayou Bullet dry lube is like night and day when it comes to leading (and smoke) issues.
Now, to the point, you guys that are casting your own might be interested in checking out the lube that's used on the Bayou Bullets. Unless he's encountering a shortage, Mr. Donnie does sell the lube (with instructions on how to apply/bake it on). A phone call to him might give you a new twist to your boolit making.
