Default RE: barrel seasoning?

Kevin,

If you are happy with it-- fine. The " all-natural" notion is peculiar. Oil is all natural. Bury a dinosaur in your backyard for 10,000,000 years-- bingo! Sweet crude.

It is basically the stuff the FDA won' t let into a hot dog, along with artificial color and perfume. Rendered road kill, and wax.

You won' t find this wonderous product used outside of smoke pole land, just because there are far better bore protectants. My barrels aren' t cast iron, and I' m not cooking.

Thompson sells it because it is an extremely high profit item for them, with most of the cost in packaging and shipping from Ox-Yoke. There were asked how it could possibly work--

The answer was:



It DOES work as a bullet lube, and does keep fouling soft. As to metal, it has no different affect than sheep tallow, bear grease, etc.
