    Would you trust these threads?

    Shot the old Lyman 54 some yesterday

    Try using Butch's Bore Paste. Just use a patch sized piece of material around a jag with a bit of paste on the material. Run it down the bore until you need more paste, then add some and run it up and down the bore a few more dozen times. It really polished my Lyman .54 barrel and it's now one...

    Mango Wood For Pistol, Rifle, or Musket Stocks?

    I was going to compare it to fruit wood if it proves easy to carve and not too dense. I was recently reminded of how nice fruit wood can be, seeing apple used for the plug on a powder horn. Many years ago I saw several stocks made from pear wood, which turned out very, very nice. Getting it...

    Ballistol-based lube?

    As has been mentioned, anywhere between a 5-1 up to 7-1 Ballistol to water mix applied to your patch material then flat dried should work fine. You might also try beeswax and olive oil mix. Add more oil for cold temperatures, more wax for warmer temps. Use very low heat when melting and mixing.
