I'm equal opportunity -- G-96, Rem-oil, Ballistol & Eezox. Hoppe's No. 9 for bore cleaning, though I don't like the new "Synthetic Blend" as much as the original. And a 3.75 ounce jar of Remington Hinge & High-Pressure Grease which came with my Remington Model 3200 Skeet Gun in the spring of 1977 and still has about 1/3 left.

I clean bores with #9, finish with Ballistol, Renaissance wax for exterior metal, internal mech.s with Ballistol, store bores with Ballistol wiped inside and pivots and sears with Rig grease. I carefully use Hoppe's oil on ejector/extractor shafts.

Years ago I sent a Single Trigger gun up to Dan at Miller single Trigger ,when I got the gun back ,Happy to say the trigger Worked Flawlessly ! But what I was the most pleased about was they wiped the gun down before shipping it back with the most Pleasing smelling oil ! It wasn't called whatever we had at home growing up but as soon as I put the gun to my cheek I was 12 years old again and Home on the Farm cleaning the guns after hunting with Dad's Beagle , I don't remember what that oil was called ! I called Dan right away and ask what kind of oil they used and he said " G 96 " ! So with that said I use G 96 on my Barrels and Action and then wipe a very small amount on my wood ! When I purchase a " New Parker " ,I always give the initial cleaning with Ballistol !

Default oil

I have used Rig for over 40 years on all parts of my guns including the bores after cleaning. I have never had any rust issues or have to worry about gun oil seeping into the wood.

Default same thing

I use the same combo. Although I do have a tin of Penn real grease I use on the joints on guns that get hunted.

Steve, unless you ordered the aerosol can of Ballistol you'll need to have an empty, and clean, spray bottle.
