I've got some lube pills over in my barn, I've never gotten around to using. They're made with paraffin, toilet bowl ring, and canola oil. I was needing something to put on a rat trap, so I smashed a lube pill onto the trigger lever. Worked like a charm.
 
I did not posted this recipe because it is more superior than others for prevention of chainfire,but I posted it also because after I shot 4 full cylinders with it,it still looks it is shot with Pyrodex,not with real black powder.In other words,it helps revolver to stay clean.

Superior?Your recipe is not any better or any worse than the dozens or hundreds of differant recipes using lard,sheep tallow,crisco,toilet bowl rings,emu fat,castor oil,olive oil, bee wax, and who knows what else
 
Hey!You are not paying attention on what I said.I said it IS NOT superior than others,so read that post again !!!!!! I just said revolver requires lesser cleaning after it !!!
 
I am hooked on a grease that we used in the Tool Room and on Injection Molds called "Old Bull".
It works well on revolver chambers since it is easily dispensed from a large hypodermic needle and it also fills the bill for lubing conical bullets.
