The newer versions of BB butter are a lot easier to handle and do not gum things up like bulk Bore Butter. The new form T17 Blue Patches or Wonderlube 1000 Plus Blue Patches are great for getting an even application.
The correct application of BB has gotten a bad rap since Randy Wakeman, decided it was non-sense.
Sorry fellas, but with all the products out there i see no reason to use BB on any rifle.exception maybe conical lube and there are a lot better lubes for that purpose also.windex and alcohol for swabbing and cleaning 777 and a quality oil after cleaning is done.also montana bore conditioner i would like to try since they claim it is "not" a synthetic oil.i do not care for any synthetic oil in my rifle barrels..Ray
