I have read some good comments about this product on this site and would like to know where it can be bought? Can't seem to find it locally. Thank You

You are right. When using Hoppes # 9 Plus, swabbing between shots is unnecessary. It's that good. However, I did use it recently, swabbing between shots, when sighting in for hunting accuracy. It worked great. I now have a full freezer ! :grin:roundball said:Landngroove said:As a patch lube, and for swabbing between shots, Hoppes #9 Plus, can't be beat ! :grin:
:hmm:
I like to use it for NOT swabbing between shots
:grin:
Does that mean you originally thought I wasn't telling the truth about it?? :grin:Old Charlie said:I have been lessening to roundball go on about
Hoppes # 9 Plus for some time. I got a quart from Dixie the other day. I am impressed! I used it as a patch lube and cleaned my rifle with it after shooting.
I did not oil after cleaning and so far no rust. It seems to be every thing he says it is.

I experience the same thing...some days I can go to the range and run them all into the center seems like without even trying hard...other days no matter how hard I try I'm sloppy and I usually find out it's because I'm not concentrating...be thinking about some project at work...dry ball...double ball, etc...when that happens, I just stop, sit down, pour a cup of coffee and take a break.Old Charlie said:"..By the way awhile back I was having trouble with my hawken spraying rounds all over the target.

I just use it as a patch lube, and occasionaly as a bore wipe this year when I was pattern testing a smoothbore...never thought of it as a rust preventer...glad you caught yours soon enoughOld Charlie said:Well I am going to have to back up on Hoppes # 9 Plus. I got my rifle down to go over before hunting tomorrow. I had cleaned it with Hoppes # 9 Plus and did not oil it after.
I had surface rust in the barrel. Just got out the rim-oil and every thing is ok.
It claims to prevent rust but did not in this case.
