Do any of you use it? Or tried it? What’s the good, bad, and ugly.
That’s because it is better, if not for what it was really designed for, to be a ‘patch lube’.I tried Hoppes #9 BP lube and was surprised to find it didn't do anything. Oh well.
FWIW, besides water, which I typically use, the best ‘chemical solvent’ I have a tried is, without a doubt, Butch's Black Powder Bore Shine - Bore Cleaning Solvent.
At previous & many weekend shoots and/or woodswalks, I have challenged many people to clean their rifle/musket, then try a swab with the Butch’s, and it always, ALWAYS pulls more manure out … it is fantastic! It actually was formulated to clean the barrels of 155mm Howitzers for the US Army.
Not that I use that much, because water will kill the salts, which is really all you really need to do …

I use a home recipe for Moose Milk, when shooting at the range. It’s easy to formulate and has been a very good patch lubricant during warm weather shooting. I use a mixture of bee’s wax and lambs tallow for patch lube when hunting in cold weather.Do any of you use it? Or tried it? What’s the good, bad, and ugly.
