I use that all purpose grease for wheel bearings and ball joints that you can get a 2 lb tube for 99 cents at walmart, it works great and you get 80% more for half the cost over a tube of any other plug grease.

I've been using TC lube in my 50cal. Knight for over 2 years.. just
bought a 45cal and have used it in that one also. Any good quality
goop will work just use it use it often then clean and start over.
When shooting mag loads of 777 or so the hint about turning then
removing will work for you.

All I ever use is Bostic Antisieze.It is copper based with molydisulfide.Has a silver gray color.I never sieze a plug.If it works on high pressure steam fittings,it will work on anything.The only drawback is it's messy to clean up.I put a patch on my breach brush and screw it in and out a time or two.The Moly will actualy penetrate into the metal,giving lasting protection.I have been a maintence mechanic for 36 years,and never had the stuff fail.Comes in 8oz can with an applicator brush.One can will last a lifetime.
