That's interesting. All I had seen in the previous 8 pages was nothing but praise for this lube. Maybe I won't feel so bad after all for missing the boat on this one.Initially I was singing the praises of this stuff but after extended use on my AR's, AK's, 10/22 and GLOCK's I have quit using it.
At first it's a great lube - it stays on well, only requires a thin film, and is extremely slick. Once you get a few hundred rounds down range though, and get the temps up on it the stuff starts getting really sticky and tacky - use it in something that has a lot of carbon crud flying around and it ends up more like a lacquer than anything. No, I wasn't using too much - after cleaning I lubed probably 50 guns with this stuff and never even used up the little bit that was stuck to the inside of the cap.
I talked a few guys at work into trying it too, after a few months of testing they found the same thing happening - and have also quit using it.
If somebody really wants to get their hands on a jar they can buy mine - PM if you're interested.
Is there anyone else who has used this product and shot extensively and had the experience of the stuff getting tacky and crudded up?
I had emailed Berryhill and asked what the name of the product was that he was buying and repackaging, thinking that, since he had stated he was out of it and would no longer order and sell any more, I might be able to order some from another source to try for myself. He ignored that request. Maybe that was lucky for me.
