I recently built a southern styled barn rifle and installed a teardrop shaped (I believe the term is Gillespie style) grease hole in the stock. Because I did not want the patch lube melting and dribbling al over the place I made up a mixture of TOTW mink tallow with a generous amount of bee’s wax melted into it. The stuff is almost as hard as a crayon at room temperatures and I fear in cold weather it will be useless as a patch lube. So with this failed experiment done I have to ask what would be the right grease to pack into one of these holes?
