For lead-free shooting at unlimited velocities. 220º F melting point. Will not melt out and kill your powder. ZAMBINI® is a hard, tough formula which bonds securely to the bullet. The result is professional-quality bullets which are pleasant to handle and easy to ship and shoot in any weather or climate. Especially popular with Cowboy Action, PPC, IDPA, Bulleyes Competition .45 Caliber, and Metallic Silhouette shooters. INSTRUCTIONS FOR USING 1"x 4" ZAMBINI® :
Customer: "It's trickier to use than soft, low-melt lubes, but it's worth it. My customers love it. Please don't ever change your formula." W.O. Reloader : "I
began reloading as a hobby over 15 years ago. I tried more than
ten lubes, but I knew my lubes had failed because of leaded barrels
and hours of gun cleaning. I thought I would give one more lube
a chance and that was your ZAMBINI®.
Bingo! My groups went to one hole. My search was over for
accurate cast bullets. I have loaded your ZAMBINI®
on pistol bullets at 1,500 f.p.s. with one hole groups at
25 yards under 1 inch on many thousands of bullets. As an experiment,
I tried ZAMBINI® on Rifle bullets
to see where it would fail and how accurate they would be. I started
out at 1,600 f.p.s. and had no leading, so on went my experiment
to 1,700 f.p.s.. Still to great amazement, no leading. I currently
shoot your ZAMBINI® at 1,880
f.p.s. from a 7-30 Waters with 145 gr. silhouette bullets which
have only 2 lube grooves. Over 400 rounds have passed without barrel
leading. Shooters who have not given your lube a try don't know
what they are missing out on. ZAMBINI®
is truly the best bullet lube out there." Return to top
As one of the most versatile bullet lubricants in the world, this water-based liquid lube dries to a glossy clear, hard, tough, waterproof waxy film of high-tech lube which is tightly bonded to cast or swaged bullets. It contains no volatile solvents, but it does contain rust preventatives for steel, and corrosion inhibitors for brass and copper. The cured film has a melting point of 210º F. Although we designed it for factory-application to lower-velocity swaged lead bullets, one customer regularly shoots it at 1,400 f.p.s. on cast bullets in his rifle! ROOSTER JACKET may be applied over most factory lubes, but it's a good idea to test a few first. Some shooters have reportedly applied it to copper-jacketed bullets to reduce copper fouling. ROOSTER JACKET lubricates approximately 100,000 bullets per gallon. INSTRUCTIONS FOR APPLICATION OF ROOSTER JACKET: May be applied quickly and economically by dipping, tumbling, or flood-coating. For the individual reloader, the best way may be to put your bullets into a funnel which is standing in the neck of an empty bottle or jug. Pour the lube over the bullets, then dump them onto 1/4" hardware cloth which has been stapled to a wood frame. Pour the excess lube back into its original container, and rinse the bottle and funnel in water immediately. Let a fan blow through the frames of bullets overnight. ROOSTER JACKET must be completely air-dried prior to use in order to get the full benefit of its lubricity. (The thickness of the dried film of lube on the bullets may be reduced by diluting the concentrate with distilled water. One longtime customer cautions against diluting it more than 30%). Gunsmith : "I've been using ROOSTER JACKET
for bullseye competition-grade .45 cal. bullets for many years and I am really pleased with it. It doesn't
gum up my dies, and I have yet to have a complaint due to leading. I love it, and so do my customers."
Gun Writer : "If you make the bullets like I do, with pure lead all the
way back to the crimp groove, some pure lead will contact the bore. If you have leading problems (which I
normally don't), you can usually cure them by coating the entire bullet surface with one of the film bullet
lubricants usually used on swaged lead bullets. LBT tumble lube works well, but my favorite is a water-based
liquid called ROOSTER JACKET. This is a liquid that you can wipe on with
your fingers that hardens to a hard wax coating. A coat of this juice on the nose and shoulder after sizing
and lubrication makes the bullets perform perfectly in my guns."
Customer: "I use 25 pound Bond Paper. I moisten it with water, wrap it around the bullet, trim it, and stand the bullet on end. Then I dilute the
ROOSTER JACKET 50%, dribble it onto the bullets and put a fan on them to dry them completely."

Formulated specifically as a media additive for polishing brass cartridge cases, ROOSTER BRIGHT cleaner-polish-protectant radically speeds up production and leaves your brass gleaming (protected by corrosion-inhibitors), and impervious to finger stains. One customer says it even eliminates the need for a sizing lube. It is an all - purpose polish for household, commercial and industrial use. Great for hand-polishing gold and silver jewelry, flatware, brass, copper, chromium, and stainless steel. This is a user-friendly, ecologically sound, bio-degradable product which contains no petroleum distillates. Mild citrus fragrance. Pleasant to use. This is our best selling product! TO USE: Shake well before using. While tumbler is running, add 1 ounce of polish per 3 pounds of untreated media (2 teaspoons per pound); one cup per 24 pounds of media, etc.. Allow to mix for 3 minutes before adding brass. For previously - treated media, add 1/3 as much polish for each succeeding batch of brass. (Monitor this to make sure your media does not get too moist). Keep lid on tumbler to keep the liquids in the polish from evaporating. Cartridge Re-manufacturer : "Our company really puts your brass polish to
the test! We recondition old military cartridges, and when we started using
ROOSTER BRIGHT in 1996, it was primarily because it contains no ammonia. But the
real benefit to us is that it quickly removes the dark tarnishes and stains, and leaves the brass cases and
copper-jacketed bullets looking like new, with a high gloss and shine which are durable. Two additional benefits
for us are that it is pleasant to use, and we get extended life from our corncob media. Our customers must like
the results, because they keep coming back for more." Return to top
USE SPARINGLY. A little goes a long way. Allow it to dry
before you start sizing. With its alcohol base and metal protectants
for steel and brass, PDQ-21 is
a high-tech extreme pressure lube which spreads easily on its own
and dries quickly. Spread the cases out on a flat surface
and mist them lightly with the enclosed pump-spray, and then
roll them back and forth to help spread the lube on the cases. Will
not affect primers or powder. Again... Cartridge Manufacturer : We've used PDQ-21
for fifteen years now. Please don't do away with it! It's all we use. Both pistol and rifle. It's simple and quick. No
contaminated primers, no killed powder, and no problem with smell. We spread out 2,000 cases at a time on a 3-foot
by 4-foot table, give them 3 shots from a handpump spray-bottle and start running. No tumbling required. It
seems to spread over the surfaces of the cases by itself, and the alcohol carrier evaporates almost immediately
(leaving a very thin film of the lube on the brass). 5 gallons of PDQ-21 will
lube between 750,000 and a million cases. That's cheap. Almost 3,000 cases lubed for a dollar! To clean and
polish, we tumble the finished cartridges in corncob media with your ROOSTER BRIGHT® brass polish.
DF-7303 is designed specifically for the severe drawing of brass cartridge cases and copper bullet jackets. It is a heavy-duty water-emulsifiable drawing fluid which has a mild odor and neutral pH. Built on a synthetic base, DF-7303 contains no sulfur or chlorine. The concentrate contains no water. Depending on the application, this versatile lubricant is used effectively in concentrations ranging from full-strength down to 1% or lower. It has excellent metal-wetting characteristics, and its water-solubility and emulsion-stability make it economical to use. It is so easy to remove that it has tripled one manufacturer's copper jacket production. Containing both rust-inhibitors and corrosion-inhibitors, it protects the tooling while contributing to the brightness, finish and corrosion-resistance of the non-ferrous finished parts. Extreme pressure (EP) additives extend tool and die life and provide excellent staying power and boundary lubricity under the most severe deep-drawing conditions. TO USE: For extremely deep complex draws, DF-7303 should be tested initially in its concentrated form. The concentrate may be applied by roller coat, brush, or drip equipment. When diluted sufficiently with water, it may be applied by flood-coating (retrieved and re-circulated), or sprayed onto the parts. For this type of application, and for difficult draws, a 10% (1/10) concentration may be a good starting point. For smaller parts, and for less stressful draws, 6.25% (1/16) has been used as a starting point.By gradually reducing the concentration, the most economical level may be found for any given application. TO DILUTE AND EMUSIFLY: Put a measured amount of the DF-7303 concentrate into a five-gallon pail. With slow to moderate agitation, stir warm water into the concentrate and mix thoroughly. Pour this into the sump. (This creates an "inverted" emulsion which has a slightly higher viscosity than a direct emulsion, and facilitates the bonding of the lubricant to the metal parts which are being formed). PRESERVATIVE: Although DF-7303 contains enough bactericide/fungicide to protect it in its concentrated form, additional treatment is necessary to extend the life of water dilutions which are to be recaptured, returned to the sump, and recirculated over a period of days or weeks. DF-7303 may be used indefinitely with a good bactericide if the concentration is monitored and kept in balance. CHOICE OF APPROPRIATE CONCENTRATION: Typically this requires a degree of trial and error, but it is best to begin with a richer concentration (like 8%), and then gradually weaken it. Please feel free to call us for customer support. Process Engineering Consultant: Commercial Cartridge Manufacturer
: "We've used ROOSTER LABS
products with good success for many years, and we like the fact
that they're designed specifically for this industry. The DF-7303
Deep Drawing Fluid is a case in point. We started using it while
it was still being perfected, and it has enabled us to do things
in process which we would not have been able to achieve with conventional
lubricants. It's easy to dilute, its emulsions are stable, and it's
pleasant to use. We use it at different concentrations for different
processes and that saves us from having to inventory several drawing
fluids. Its ease of removal makes parts clean-up much simpler and
more efficient than the oil-based lubricants we have used in the
past. I would like to close by saying that DF-7303
appears to reduce the stresses on the metals when they're being
formed, protects the tooling, and improves the finish on the parts."
