Sold a couple of my rifles for an "unexpected" upcoming expense that I wound up being able to dodge....
Anyway, went out and looked at LOTS of different rifles, and the Ruger Hawkeye just plain "fit" me better than the rest.

I got the wood/blued steel in .30-06. I'm normally a synthetic/stainless guy....but I just couldn't get past how much I liked the wood/blued version.

So.....what's the best way I can prevent rust on my new rifle.
A particular cleaner/lubricant that works well?

I've used Hoppes No. 9 in the barrel and on all other metal surfaces to give a general cleaning and then given everything a light coat of RemOil.

Can anyone give me some advice on other products or methods to prevent rust from getting started on my carbon steel rifle?

Thanks
