RE: Patch lubes
Hunter John, every gun is different, just cause it works in mine, doesn't mean it will work in yours.
I have not sprayed the moose milk on top yet, but I have used equal ammouts of Castor Oil/Murphy's Oil Soap and Water in a spray bottle. Just load a ball and dry patch and squirt, or dribble some drops on top. The dry patch will suck the lube in just fine. I have a small Vizine[sp] Bottle that works well. Smaller the hole, the better.
Some thoughts: The dry fabric doesn't compress like when it is wet, so when you load it dry, the ball is imprinted by the fabric better. Then add lube the lube to the top.....it sucks in and wets the fabric,softens and lubes. Instead of forcing the lube out when loading, it allows it to be "wicked" in and actually lube the bore.
I also tried the moose milk as a wet patch......didn't shoot very accuractly in my guns. But, let it dry, it makes a nice dry type lube that shoots OK....and loads easy......
