I was using the 60/40 beeswax vaseline recipe.
Once I loosened the wedge (tapping it outward with the keeper screw in) it shot well and cleaned up easily.
Had some dis-assembly practice right off since the screw for the loading gate was backed out a bit and blocked the cartridge rim, stopping the cylinder so the only way to fix it was to remove the barrel and cylinder.
