Has anyone made some and tried using it? We hear about bear fat a fair amount, but more people shoot deer than bear. Just wondering about trying it.
I tried the rendered coon oil, it worked great for patch lube, but then discovered olive oil delivered the same results.....and smelled much better, so I stick with it.I use it mixed 1:1 with crisco as a lube for my REAL and TC maxi balls; I heat and dip. I also use it strait over the bullets or balls of my black powder revolvers. I use olive oil for my patches, was going to try rendered racoon fat this year but did'nt get that project done. Being mountain grown I've been around deer tallow all my life; if you have some try it as a moisturizer on your hands and feet, you'll like it.
