What gets plastic out of shotgun barrels the fastest?
And when you go out into that 15°, 20° and 25° weather, and below, don't forget to take a rag/patches and wipe off the grease and oil, because when it's freezing out there, it will impede your weapon's action. Just ask the Germans and Russkies. LOL
.
Mobil 1 motor oils offer a full range of temperature protection: For cold starts, the oil keeps flowing as low as -40 degrees Fahrenheit, and it can withstand high temperatures of up to 500 degrees Fahrenheit.
I'd like to put in a plug for Militec-1. I teach youth shotgun. Our gas guns get pretty funky over time. We use MILITEC on ALL the metal parts. When PROPERLY applied, (applied, then HEATED to a dry finish) it seals and lubes the surfaces. Cuts clean-up and provides a dry lubed surface. The MILITEC "finish" is functional until you literally wear it off. This has worked for us for over 15 years! It is also a mild cleaner if in a jam. NOT a good storage lube UNLESS heated/dried! (DO the barrel (inside and out also!)
I have looked and I did not find a recent thread on this topic. I am looking to invest into some new cleaning equipment and wanted thoughts opinions and preferences on kits, solvents, lubes, and tools to get this job done. Lets assume that we are looking at all the common calibers and I have nothing. I am willing to spend the money if it is worth it but also do not need/want a diamond handled bore snake.
I saw this on the interwebs and then thought before I buy reach out to the group here first.
