I am a fair weather guy. In the summer I shoot in the cool part of the day and in the winter I shoot in the warmer part of the day providing that is about freezing or above. I am always looking for a better lube. I have been using 6661 for several months in rifle and pistol. This is the best lube that I have used. I am happy with the 6661 until Gear reappears or someone else comes up with something better.
