The samples I have of original 7.35mm ball ammunition have bullets coated with a fairly heavy waxy lubricant - I seem to remember that the 6.5mm ammunition also had waxed bullets. However, I haven't been able to find any source explaining what the Italians' reason for applying the wax was, or the formula of the stuff.
Anyone know more about it?
Thanks!
