Rooster Red Lube

[BBarrett]

Has anyone ever tried the Rooster Red hard lube? how does it compare with LBT?:p

[fryboy]

i like it myself but as for comparing ... compare it with the hard LBT or the soft ? lolz , there's a lil history in there you should be aware of tho , a few years back they stopped selling their HVR ( high velocity rifle ) and only retained the red zambini , this year it seems that they quit selling the red zambini so ... if you find some now you may not be able to later ( it kind of bites IMHO ...yeah that's how much i liked it and the price was better by way as well ) the loss of the HVR is why i started getting serious about making my own lubes
btw ? the LBT hard is a decent lube as is the zambini , in my humble opinion the HVR was hard for me to tell the difference in performance , i havent tried it straight up against the plain zambini however

I had bought up several of the HVR a few yrs. back and this is what I had been using. Glad to hear it is good.

Red rooster zambine was the first hard lube i ever tried over 25 years ago it worked ok but IMO was the poorest preformer of the other HARD LUBES ive tried ! such as Thompson , LBT commercial , true flight , magnma , & carnuba red commercial

Haven't seen it in a while. I remember Rooster Red, Blue Angel, and Orange Magic.
Those were the lubes available when I first saw folks casting boolits.
There was Javalina 50/50 as well.

I used an NRA formula in bulk sticks. Once I heard about Larsen's White Label Lube's, I never
looked back

I had great results with one of the hard red lubes from Rooster. I think that it was HVR, but I don't remember for sure. Then I could not get it any more. I've since switched to Carnuba Red from White Label (Lars). My results with that are pretty darn close & the price is pretty darn different. If I did find the Rooster again, I would probably not switch back.
