Yes Howards Feed N Wax is absolutely fantastic at preventing rust.I ran several tests for rust prevention and was surprised that my top three preventitives were not al all what I thought.
In order:
1. Marvel Mystery Oil
2. Howards Feed n Wax
3. Superblond shellac
Ballistol and WD40 were down the list. A few, like FLITZ metal polish were actually corrosive in the long term.
Natural oils theoretically could degrade into acetic acid and be corrosive, but that might be over a very long time or other circumstances.
I thought WD specialist was in the top 3
in that test I think hornady one shot a lube for cases came in first or tied for firstYes, that's what surprised me. I use it occasionally to get the moisture out. I may get some of the Specialty and use it more often.
I have used WD40 for decades and can safely say that I have never developed rust in the barrels of any of my firearms(both ML and modern)…..even during prolonged storage(20+ years). My shotguns have been routinely subjected salt/coastal areas where rust can develop quite fast. A good flush with fresh water, then WD40, does the trick! I was also surprised at the Specialty WD 40 results and bought some to try…..Haven’t used it yet though.I was surprised at the WD40 Specialty results. WD40 has been praised and da%$#d for years. Dutch was a proponent of WD40.

Hornady one shot cleaner and case lube.....I think Hornady One Shot is a case lube. Maybe there are two different products
nope in the test it was the case lubeI think Hornady One Shot is a case lube. Maybe there are two different products
Brother, if ox urine keeps a gun looking like that Trade Gun you made, I’m switching!I had seen this test before. Very interesting and useful information. But I'll stick with ox urine.
