Imperfection Posted May 9, 2012 Report Share Posted May 9, 2012 Another vote for 009 here.It smells a bit pungent,but is cheap and does a damn good job on both rifles and shotguns. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bloggs Posted May 9, 2012 Report Share Posted May 9, 2012 I was using Tetra bore cleaner until I discovered (by accident)that it tarnishes the bluing on the barrels :blink: I now use white spirit to clean the barrels and action, much cheaper and works wonders I coat the barrels with Legia oil and everything else that needs lubing gets Tetra gun grease Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Penfolio Posted May 9, 2012 Report Share Posted May 9, 2012 Napier gun cleaner, Ballistol and a dab or two of moly grease seem to do the trick for me. Oh, and from from time to time, some Legia (green can) on the wood. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BangBangNik Posted May 9, 2012 Report Share Posted May 9, 2012 +1 for Napier. A big tin lasts for ages. I also use bisley gun oil and a dab of bisley gun grease on the rubbing parts. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
