    I did try a little a few years ago. I tumbled some minies in a mixture of Rooster patch lube with some powdered moly. While the dried minies were easy to store/handle, as the Rooster lube dries to a thin, non-sticky film kind of like LLA, the results were inconclusive??? Also, tried about the same thing with lubing some paper patched bullets-- also inconclusive.

    But wouldn't hurt to try and see how it works.

    My gun shoots PRBs so well that I've never tried anything else in it.

    Any problem can be solved with the correct application of explosives.

    The 2nd amendment was never intended to allow private citizens to 'keep and bear arms.' If it had, there would have been wording such as 'the right of the People to keep and bear arms shall not be infringed. -Ken Konecki, July 27, 1992
