I checked the new samples today, and they all show no sign of change. I am starting to believe that all of them are good products.. even bore butter.. to prevent rust. In the container they are in, if they were going to rust, they should have. And not one would store their rifles under these conditions.

So to conclude this test, don't store your rifle in high humidity environments, if you clean your rifles well, and then treat them with a quality product, you are or at leas should be, save from rust.

I am later going to use these sample to test four powders and see which rusts fastest and to what degree. I have not decided on which powders to use. One will be black horn 209, Pyrodex I know will rust the devil out of metal, but there is black powder, and triple seven out there. As some APP... so keep that in mind for the next test ...
