Default Bore Protectant: What do you use?

What do you use as the final step in the cleaning process to protect your ML's bore? CLP, RemOil, Birchwood Sheath, Bore Butter, etc...????

I am using about everything in town. Breakfree CLP, Kroll oil, Birchwood Casey Sheath, WD-40, Rem Oil with teflon, Montana X-treme Bore Conditioner, and Smith & Wesson bore conditioner.

I really like Sheath, but am having some impressive results with the Montana X-treme Bore Conditioner. I still have a lot of testing to do before I am 100% sold on it, but so far I really like the product. Its the first time my Bison shot to the same place on a clean barrel or fowled..

Honestly just the Outers Gun Oil from Wal-Mart. Is that not a good idea? I have some Breakfree CLP also but wasn't sure if it worked as a gun oil or just to clean it and then I should run a patch with gun oil through after it. It talked on the can like it did everything.

Is there any reason I should use anything other than the Outers when storing them?

Rem Oil with Teflon. At the range a alcohol patch/both sides, a dry patch, pop a couple of 209 primers and your ready to go.

What kind of alcohol are you guys using that use it to removed oil? I have a large bottle of 91% Isopropyl Alcohol. Would that be fine to use?
