Sorry about that. Sometimes the learning curve with cast bullets is pretty steep. But, there's more to it than just shaving the lube off the bullets. The most important part of any rifle bullet is the base and with cast bullets, the next most important thing is bullet fit. If you're shaving lead then the bullet base is likely damaged and the bullet won't fit the bore.
However, you're learning and that's a good thing. Keep at it and you'll soon be shooting great groups with that rifle. Tell me, are you using gas checks? How hard are you pushing your bullets?
