    Lar45 sent me some Lube

    Hi fellas
    The other week or so I saw in a post of someones,that Lar45 would send some samples to anyone interested in trying and then to buy some of his lubes,anyhoo I contacted Lar45 to enquire about his line of lubes he sells and asked if I could get a sample of the Red Carnauba lube if possible,but would understand if he did not want to send me any,for I'm in Australia,as it would be a bit of a hassle.
    But blow and behold,I get home on Friday night and a parcel from Lar45 was sitting on the table,to my suprise when I opened it up,it was not one stick of lube but 8 of 'em,2 of Red Carnauba,3 of 50/50 Alox Beeswax,2 of BAC and 1 of Alox 2500+ and several business cards.
    I was amazed that I got this many,so I have given a few samples to my casting mates,along with his business cards,now I don't know if they will buy any(I know one is a tight so and so) ,but I know I will for sure.
    I want to thank Glenn for his generosity and I want to assure him that I appreciate it alot and I urge everybody to support him and buy some of his lubes.
    Since joining this forum,I have got to know a few of you blokes and have to say what a great bunch you all are,not just for the info we all share but a common mateship,if thats the right word,for we all enjoy casting and shooting,what a trusting lot

    I cannot wait to try these lubes out in some of my rifles,but alas,I'll have to wait until next week or so until I get my melting pot replaced.
    Thanks again to Lar45(Glenn) and the rest of you for making it worthwhile to be part of this group
    Cheers Boys

    He is one of the finest gentlemen I know. He also sent me some to try and I have been posting my results. I have a shoot to make before I post some more results. I have been very pleased with his lubes.
    If you do nothing else, PLEASE, post your results.

    I just went to E-bay & bought some of the carnauba red in the "buy it now" category. 10-sticks for 16 bucks. That is alot of shooting for the money. It's like Bass says, you get a lube that works and along comes something else. And it's kinda silly since I already have a huge chunk of Felix-Lube that even smells good like a barbershop because of the source of lanolin being from a hair-pressing product. I used some tre-wax brand car polish in a little can from the dump recycling building. It is fun! Surprised it works so well in spite of it not being "perfect-to-the-letter". I found a jar of pure lanolin at the health food store (New Leaf Market) and will try that eventually but the other stuff worked great.

    I'm doing my part, I've ordered 20 sticks of Carnauba Red, 10 solid and 10 hollow. I can't wait for it to get here and give it a go. I've heard so much good about it has a lot to live up to. I'm positive it will.

    I also bought some of his fine Carnauba Red .
    HE ( Not me ) thought his shipping was to slow because he was out and had to cast some more sticks to fill my order ( just a few days ).
    So he sent along some extra sticks and some 50/50 for me to use .

    One great guy to deal with .

    I will forever be sorry that he doesn't live near so we could shoot and hunt together.
