Patch Lube

       Lee Shaver said in his Single Shot Exchange when shooting paper patch bullets he oils the bore for each shot
with Mobil 1 synthetic motor oil. That made me wonder how Mobil 1 would work as a patch lube so I gave it a try.

      I cut my patching in strips I rolled a strip and put it in a 35 MM film container, and added a teaspoon of oil and 
let it soak for a few days. I used just enough oil that the patching was oiled but I could handle it without getting a
lot of oil on my hands.Worked fine in my rifle my groups were smaller than with Lehigh Valley Lube. That I had found to give me the best groups in my rifle. I clean between shots with Hoppe's number 9 Black Powder Solvent.

     If anyone give Mobil 1 a try as a patch lube report an tell how it worked good or bad.
     Not for people who shoot without cleaning between shots.

Three things you must remember while target shooting. (1) Align the sights carefully. (2) Squeeze the trigger. (3) Say how did it get over there. http://prwarner.wix.com/mlts-masters
