[&o][&o][&o] I am sorry to say... I messed the test up BIG TIME. I was sweeping up the gun room. The sample was sitting on a old military wooden shell case. And you'd never guess what I knocked over as I was sweeping...

Well the sample hit the floor. And when I checked them, I was "pretty sure" which was which. But being "pretty sure" is like being part right. You're also part wrong.

So I took all the samples to the shop. Ran them on the grinding wheel and took all rust off them. I then treated them as I would if I were cleaning a rifle. I used brake cleaner to get them all spotless.

Sample #1 I applied bore butter to a patch and basically patched the piece of metal. I applied a thin even coating of bore butter to it.

Sample #2 I used the Montana X-treme bore conditioner and did basically the same thing. After I was sure it was clean and dry, I patched it with the BC and applied a thin even coat.

Sample #3 was Birchwood Casey Sheath

Sample #4 was WD-40

Sorry I had to start the test over. Also I no longer have the samples "resting" on a wet paper towel in the container. I put a dry paper towel down, and folded the wet towel and added that to the top of the container. So anything that is drawn towards the sample should be even.

I also put the sample on a cabinet that holds bullets. That I know is not going over.. So now I start again. I knew some of you were concerned about how good these products protect the rifles we so love. And I did not want false or tainted information out there.
