Cold Weather Bore Butter

[BW]

The first time I took some bore butter to the field in cold weather the tube turned to stone.

I like the stuff, but it does not fair well in sub zero hunting temps in the squeeze tube. So I tried something that seems to work well.

I put it into an empty chapstick tube in the warm comforts of the shop and throw it into the PBag. Even if it hardens up you just crank it up and apply as needed. :way:

Great idea. I'm wondering though...................how's it taste when you forget it's not chapstick?

Why do you use bore butter? Just curious...

Patch lube. However; i've found bore butter not to work well in single digit temps. Good 'ole spit for me in cold weather.

I only use bore butter when hunting with my MK 85 & Barnes MZ Expander sabots, reloading can be a little easier with lube.

BTW SB, can't tell much difference. I think the BB may have a better flavor.:grin:

Good thinking right there...that is a cool idea.
