RE: Rail Lube question
Jig-A-Loo works great. Goes on wet, quickly dries to a nearly invisable film, leaving just a bit of a sheen. Great for cleaning the entire bow. Thanks for the tip Moon..

Iwould try it for cleaning the entire bow but if I did it would probably keep slipping out of my hands:-)

some people use BREAKFREE on their rails,its dry lube.

breakfree is only lube we used on our bretta shotguns on piston area.
SHEATH from birchwoods casey is only thing we use inside barrel and chamber.

There is absolutely no odor to the spray I use. If you use any type of oil to lubricate your trigger it will give off an odor, Your body gives off odor. It is virtually impossible to remain odorless.

The teflon spray is odorless.Even it it wasn't , it would not besuch that it would spook the deer.Sounds and movement will dothat for you.

I ordered and received a can of the teflon dry lube that Dagriz is using. (By the way, thanks for the tip,Dagriz). I use it on my ProFusion (vertron rails) and it works wonderfully well. Very slick and dry. I've yet to smell it. Great stuff. I CAN smell a slight oil odor when I use the Ten Point rail lube (microlon). Until I learn otherwise, the Teflon Dry Lube from Share Corp. is what I'll be using.

I use Crisco, the non butter flavored kind. (I started using it yrs ago when shooting blackpowder pistols)

odorless, $3 buys a 5lb tub that will last you for over a decade.

Just a little dab will do you. Put some in a small lip balm container, 35mm film roll or like me in a old No. 11 cap container.

I have put over 500 shots on my string and still looks brand new..

What about vasaline petroleum jelly ?

RE: Rail Lube question
My Personal Experience is that using anything sticky like vaseline, Crisco, grease, oil, etc on the barrel/rail winds up causing hair balls, dust balls, other grit and grime to adhere to the rail. Makes for a mess and could possibly get into your trigger mechanism. A dry film lubricant makes life easier, No mess , no fuss,

Teflon spray works absolutely great for me. Jigaloo works well, S&W Dry Filmlube workswell from what I read, but I have no experience with those.

I really didn't buy the Jigaloo for the crossbow. I use it on carbon shafts but it works well on everything I've tried it on. I was down at the farm the other day and was trying to raise the windows to let the house get some fresh air :-) The windows were sticking bad. Jigaloo to the rescue:-) You can push them up with one finger.
