Default gun oils

I have a sweet 16 that has been in the rabbit woods it's whole life. The gun still has a decent blueing on it, but it still seems to rust. It's not a bad rust, but it's just the little speckles that you have to look hard to see keep forming on the barrel. I am religious about gun mainenance, and wipe them down often. I use 3in1 oil to wipe them down with. It doesn't seem to be doing the trick. i used this for years on all my other guns with no problems. what oil should i use to wipe them down with. I can't get the gun reblued because it was a gift passed down from my grandfather. After he passes i'll get it reblued and put it away. I really hate that gun with a passion, but still have to use it. i haven't hit crap with this gun. An example of what this gun did to me wasmy skeet score dropping from a 23-24 consistantly to an 8 out of 25 if i was lucky. the other day i missed a rabbit 3 time sitting 20 yards out. I don't suck that bad, with mysavage i can hit just about anything nomatter the speed.
