Not necessary.. I just powder coat while still warm..

....Many different forms of jacket s are used for similar results. No powder burners are wearing out barrels from solid copper slugs. Powder coating is a Jacket performing similar results to copper jackets at less velocity of course. Powder coat makes your slug more slippery. And of course lube...

I will cross over worlds here from powder burners and mention lanolin as a binder/lube. Aka wool wax. It's sheep's wool oil basically. No idea if it works here but I used to use it for bullet lube when casting for the subsonic powder burner envelope.

Do you have any experience with powder coating?

As a Medical Technologist (Laboratory scientist) I have always been aware of an wary off any type of heavy metal poisoning. Not as much of a problem today, but early canned food used cans sealed with a lead/tin mixture that could very definitely cause lead poisoning. Here is an interesting...

For you guys powder coating, how does that work when remelting the coated boolits? just burns off no issues?

I was thinking of getting a Lee APP press for sizeing Airgun Slugs...I can cast five at a time.....I.can powder coat about 10 lbs at a time.. Sizeing the powder coated slugs is the slowest step...Handling each individual slug....I already have the Lee App bushings and bottle adapter.. I.just...

hello; i have taken my sidelever beeman apart to clean the airtube and valve. it appears i was getting powder coating flaking off and migrating through the power circuit which plugged the rifle. i have cleaned all the parts and polished the powder coating off the tube cap. pretty sure that...

Yes it will shoot!!!!Very little bearing surface!!!! Definitely powder coat design!!!!

I've tried coating and heat curing pellets (HiTek coating). No carbon build-up in barrel, but terrible accuracy/precision likely due to inconsistent coating of pellets, despite putting very thin coatings for each of 3 to 4 coats.

...with deformation. 400 degrees is well below the melting point of lead. It will lower the bhn of some alloys temporarily, but the hardness will return as they season. If I am powder coating an alloy and I want maximum hardness, I water quench them as soon as I take them out of the powder coat...

I shoot >20K rounds per year in local pistol comps and cast my own boolits so I get what you are saying. I moved away from wax lube years ago and now only use powder coat. Its a LOT cleaner and nearly smoke free.

...new pile of stuff that's soon will be dropped off at good will. That reminds me have a toaster oven I bought at good will for cooking powder coating on cast lead bullets. That's another interesting semi new development to keep from leading barrels. Likly way too inconsistent for pellets. If...

powder coat i doubt, painted maybe but my guess would be Blued, it is cheap and could be done with hundreds hanging in a tank

Thank you very much for your attention, I'll see what I can do.

@Llama I think powder coating is an option worth exploring. I don’t have comparative experience. When my barrels are leaded to the point where accuracy is affected I clean them. But I’m not shooting my .45. I like my .357s. They don’t lead up too quickly. I don’t lube my projectiles, but a...

...for lube does fine...Some like Silicon oil....Rem oil works good in my hand lapped.barrel.. There is a big difference in different powder coating s..I have Industrial Silver from Eastwood and a industrial john deer green that flat out work.. I have more than I can ever use if you need some...

Been shooting the Crosman Summit 4.5mm every day for a fortnight, and can't get enough. Was a total lemon out of the box though (not unexpected, but all pellets grouped close to 3" !) but after sorting out the barrel (crown, leade in and bore polish), making up a set of guides (and balancing...

Powder coat is most commonly polyester resin. Not sure how it will wear out a steel barrel in my lifetime.

@Llama I’ll pass on advice I was given. Powder coat. https://www.airgunnation.com/threads/powder-coating.1283591/ @RM.510bigbore and @karl_h have given me some good advice here. There are a few threads around the forums where the advantages of doing so are discussed. Maybe not quite the...
