RE: How many of you still borebutter?
First of all Triple Se7en, I was not directly calling you lazy. I know a lot of guys locally that want to put a couple of solvent patches down the bore and then put on some bore butter or rem oil or someother lube. Well they don't understand that the rifle is not clean and that they are just trapping the fouling and moisture under the lube. Then these guys will complain about the bore butter not working because they get rust. When you try to "clean" this way it doesn't matter what you use for lube you will get rust. I was not critising you for not using bore butter, Use what works for you. I have found a way of doing things that works for my with the bore butter, I will continue to use it. As for shooting all day, this is one of my hobbies I am always tring to become a better shot. When I did shoot an inline and used sabots, bore butter was a no no.I feel that this could cause the plastic to skip over the rifling instead of engaging. Also I never use bore buter in anything other that muzzle loaders. All of the other types of firearms with modern powders do not corrode as easily. You do your thing I'll do mine.
