Thinking about shooting some low powered loads in my 350 Remington Mag.

Has anyone had any luck using 50/50 in short barreled rifles?

I assume you are talking about the old NRA formula (beeswax/alox) lube as sold by Javalina and others. It started life as an all purpose lube for both handgun and rifle and still does well at that job.

Sure I have used it in rifles and it works just fine. There are only two kinds of bullet lube..those that work, and those than don't work. This stuff works.

I've tried a lot of other lubes and keep going back to Javelina or Lar's equivelent of the NRA 50/50 lube. I shoot loads from 300 fps to 2600+ fps and it is the best lube I've used.
