Yep. I used Bore Butter for years with no ill effects whatsoever. I never did buy into the seasoning hype not even back in the early 80’s. I used it for patch lube and conical lube. I still oiled the heck out my muzzleloaders after cleaning them. Never a problem one.Bore butter gets a bad rap because of the seasoning claims. And the seasoning claims are BS but Bore Butter and 1000+ are good patch lubes. I used it for quite a long time with excellent results. Only dropped it because it got more costly than my frugal bone wanted to pay. Besides, excellent lubes can be made at home for pennies and they work good too.
There are plenty of Bore Butter users on this forum who don't mention it because the seasoning issue comes up immediately! They are the Silent Minority
Pizza at least 500 degrees! My Mom came over with the family almost 100 yrs. Ago.Not pizza!! 450.
Not steak!! Broil.
Not muzzleloader barrel to be browned!! 220.
Yes, but that's not seasoning.So let me get this right. For those that remove their barrels and clean them with very hot water and soap.
You all just put the rifle away with nothing coating the barrel?
It may not be a thing NOW, but it was in decades past.
This next season you make sludge via the oil in that stuff.coated with Ballistol
Never had that problem. Ever.This next season you make sludge via the oil in that stuff.
My buddy made lube from bacon grease. He cleans his gun right after shooting. We call it the breakfast load. used it in a black powder revolver cylinders.We cook soo much bacon in this house I thought of the idea of using it instead of shorting in my lube but decided not to. Would probably end up eating it all on the range or in the field.
Too much salt for my gunsI season my barrel with bacon grease and a bit of course ground black pepper. Put it in the oven for about an hour at 350 degrees, it doesn’t get much better than that.
Of course not. I use balistol nowadays. Period.So let me get this right. For those that remove their barrels and clean them with very hot water and soap.
