	Rubber bullet - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Rubber and wooden bullets are often used in riot control and to disperse protests.
		A new type of projectile named the plastic bullet or plastic baton round was introduced in 1972; initially used alongside the rubber bullet, it eventually replaced it.
		The X-Ring Rubber Bullet, the only widely-available brand of recreational rubber bullet, resembles an airgun "diablo" pellet, and is available in diameters for.38/.357/9 mm.,.44, and.45 calibers, and are loaded into brass or plastic cases; an enlarged flash hole is recommended to reduce the likelihood of primer "setback", which can stop a revolver's cylinder from rotating.

		Push each unprimed case through the wax, mouth first, keeping the case as close to vertical as possible to assure that the wax bullet has squared ends.
		Wax build-up in the rifling will need to be cleaned out occasion- ally but has not seemed to hurt accuracy at the 20 feet or so distances at which I use this load.

	MolyCoating
		I found when bullets are plated with steel pellets the wax does not remove any Moly, in the two minutes it takes to wax the bullets.
		In a conversation with Walt Berger he said all his bullets are waxed, the wax is important, and that is what I do.
		How the thickness of the wax can be measurably increased, is not known to me. However I have noticed uneven build up when the tumbling temperature is more than a cool room temperature and longer than 2 minutes with steel pellets.
