Hi Powder, IMO pure lead used for C&B revolvers doesn't require fluxing. Just skim off the surface oxide if desired. However, for lead alloy used for hard bullets, fluxing is required to keep the tin and antimony in the lead solution. Contaminated lead used for C&B can sometimes be improved by not fluxing and skimming off the tin, antimony, and dirt that segregates to the top of the lead melt.
If making harder than pure lead projectiles, I find that beeswax works great for fluxing, and beeswax is also useful for lubing the hot mold joints.

Richard
