what do you use to cut patch at muzzle

do you grease ONLY 1 side of the material
I don't know what others use but I just use my knife to cut the patches. they do make a patch cutter though.I doubt that you would get a consistent lubed patch if you grease only one side. The patch lube is important for accuracy. The best way to get the consistency you need is to use a water soluble oil and mix it at 7:1, soak the patches good then lay them out to dry. When the water dries the patches remain slick and lubricated . They also are lubricated the same. This controls one more of the many variables. Then put them in the film canister so they stay that way.
are you talking about BALLISTOL.
