Best Practices

Hey all, I was wondering what your best suggestions and techniques/products you use for lubing your 10/22's after a good cleaning?

My wife and I go out every saterday and put in the nieghborhood of 4-500 rounds each through our 10/22's so we do a good strip and clean, then re-lube.. I use Break Free CLP at the moment, but it sounds like maybe there is a better way..

Currently, I use Frog Lube. I pretty much lube everything down according to their directions. I do this on my 10-22. Until just now, I was using a combination of Tetra and Frog lube on my other firearms. It appears that I can just use Frog Lube on them too. Another member of this fine forum recommended that I do not use anything other than Frog lube if I am to use Frog lube.

So far, I have had really good results using Frog lube on my 10/22. My 10/22 is that which you see on my profile picture.

Thanks, but from what I can tell, that list is sadly out of date.. I did some digging around, and there are other "dealers" in canada, but info is scarse. I was more looking to see if there were any dealers that anyone out there knew of that I hadnt come accross..lol

I just drop my 10/22 into a drum of 30 weight I keep in the basement, then let it drain a while before I wipe it down and put it away................

Ever imagine some Billy-Bob out there writing that seriously, if he could spell all the words?

I just put a drop of oil everywhere something pivots on a pin, wipe the recoil spring with an oily swab, and an oily patch down the bore.

I am liking the froglube a lot at this point...just got it...did a complete clean/lube...then 'torture' tested it...ran great...very happy...I posted the details of my first impression and initial results...fwiw...

I really can't see how you can go wrong on a 10/22 with froglube...going to try it on my glock next...

I would definitely get the paste...
