I used to use it on my revolvers. Seemed to work pretty well. This was about 10 years ago. Don't know if the formula has changed since then.

100 rounds of 45 ACP with 7.0gr of A#5

I havent tried the 20W 50 yet...as soon as I run out of 75W90, I will give it a try.

I agree Bob....1590 rounds is pretty good....first time I've used 244 and like it so far...but AA5 is pretty much my favorite over the years!👍

Reloaded 200 rounds of .45 ACP, 230gr Berry's Round Nose, 4.4gr of Win 244. Will continue this batch until the W244 is gone, and switch to Accurate #5.

Good idea Silverado12, sounds good to me. We love the smell of fish and gunpowder in the morning! LOL

That's true. My Brown has about 3000 rounds thru it. But I have things we'll in hand now...just being more judicious about how I lube the rails etc. 👍

Let me clarify. Some of my failures to feed were because my reloads (some of them) didnt pass the "plunk" test. Failure to go into battery were about 3 in 50 rounds. With the thicker lube, the slide seemed to go into battery all the way rather than hanging up about an inch short...go figure . I...

Just a report from todays shooting trip. I started using 75w90 gear oil as an overall gun lube. Shot the Ed Brown .45 with absolutely NO FTF, or no FTE for the first time in awhile. I also use RIG on the rails of all my 1911's and that has also been a good thing. And cleaning was a breeze with...

If I'm not mistaken....the owner was originally a co owner or manager at Huffy bikes

The Atlantis is a semi-custom bike, make by hand in Japan for Rivendell. They only make about 200 per year...might be different now. I will follow up with photos, as today is a rainy day in AZ and I will take it out in the sun and shoot some different photos of it soon.

I have a 2005 vintage Atlantis, 57cm frame for sale. Moustache bars, with bar end shifters, 700c Synergy rims, triple ring Sugino crank, Brooks leather saddle. Continental City Ride tires and trunk rack with pack. It is in very good shape and only selling because I want a foxed gear track bike...

Been shooting Sporting clays for many years now. I have a Beretta 686 Silver Pigeon .410 and a Browning CXS in 20ga. Enjoy the sub gauges quite a lot. Dont find I need a 12ga anymore, and at 74, dont need the sore shoulder!

Living in the mostly dry climate of AZ, I dont have too much of a corrosion problem. I do like to use the Corrosion X, which I always have around. If I am going to leave the firearms in the safe for a couple of months before shooting again, I just lightly coat them with RIG, wipe off and they...

I carry a full size Springfield TRP or my full size Ed Brown 45ACP
