Thread: whats your "lube" :)

Just thought it be inreresting to see what kinda oil you guys are using and the merits of each...

I use kleenbore oil cos its supposed to clean and protect but really I got givin a heap of cleaning kits with bits missing years ago so scored a heap of bottles.... But im almoat run out and it like hmmmm what to buy lol..

I also have a bottle of rem oil with teflon I use for triggers and bolts as its quite thin so penetrate well and doesnt seem to gum up.. I akso got it in my brain the teflon would be real slippery... But dont put it in a barrel it causes terrible accuracy for 4~5 shots...

Break free clp with PTFE on and in everything. Doesnt seem to affect first shot much if at all but i put one tight dry patch down before using. Also seems to have mild copper removing effect.

Hoppes No9 does the job for me

Stop sticking things where they dont belong and it wont be so complicated!

I have used kroil for ages, its a good penetrant. Never had anything rust since using it so have stuck with it. One patch with kroil and a couple follow up patches and my barrels look like new. Seems to work well with HBN or Moly.

Kroil for inside the barrel - seems to effect clean / cold bore shot the least
G96 - smells wonderful, great on metalwork & my choice of lube for neckturning

Kroil up the spout,,,,,Eezox keeping everything on the outside good,,,did use to use a bit of that ballistol as well wasnt bad
