Eezox been using it for years and its great
If it works, great. I’d be concerned about the salt in it, or have you found a salt free bacon grease source?Pour bacon grease through a coffee filter into a jar or can, wax, olive oil to the time of year. Never worry about rust I shoot to often.
I use Eezox on both my muzzle loaders and smokeless guns. I'm happy with it.Eezox is good......... I use it on my unmentionables, No complaints.

I'm not putting down anybody's cleaning method or choices of gun cleaner/lube/preservative. You can go 21st century or 18th century or even earlier, and if you're happy, that's all that matters. From what I've read, and I don't know much about it, whale sperm oil was the preferred gun oil a couple hundred years ago, but it was expensive and hard to get. I would imagine Daniel Boone and friends probably used bacon grease, hog lard, etc. because that's what they had on hand and it worked good enough. They couldn't hop on Amazon and get sperm oil delivered to their cabin doors but if they could have again I bet they would've preferred that. My 2¢ worth is if you are concerned about keeping rust at bay to try a few modern products any of which would probably be superior to the bacon grease type diy stuff.
Break Free CLP has worked flawlessly for me as a rust preventive for 50 years.Searching products again.
Bore butter..
Cooking grill products.
Make my own.
Renaissance wax..
to prevent rust.
I don't use anything in the bore during use because I been using gun oil to prevent rust. Been cleaning daily during the season.
Wondering if it's good for a week or two with a coat of the Renaissance wax.. that seems to be popular..
The search went from cooking to knifes to then armor. Then modern unmentionable back to armor back to muzzloaders. Used across the board. Renaissance wax.
