Use the same stuff in lieu of 3 in one and gun oil, cheaper, and better in the low temps.
Thanks for the tip about diesel. I run 15w/40 synthetic, will give it a try.
Also make my own bore cleaner. Mostly #1 heating oil, some hoppes #9 for smell, some carburetor cleaner. Works great. Maybe someday I will find some banana oil which is what I heard gives Hoppes its distinctive odor. Nothing says GUNS like Hoppes.
