Yep, 5 parts beeswax to 4 parts olive oil.
I started out 50/50 and if I hunted in cold weather I would have used it. It was more solid than bore butter, but still a bit soft for what I wanted. 5:4 was perfect for what I wanted. It sticks to the lube grooves really well and doesn't melt down with body heat, but you can still feel the olive oil in it when you handle it.
