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.
