RemOil

voodoo science. I've tried Remoil, MolyLube, screaming diaper ####, you name it, a clean bore is the best thing you can have, that's about it. when you look at the interface surfaces of bullets to barrel you'd know that a thin coating of lube is going to do jack #### all. after the first shot it will all be gone. the only thing oil is good for is protecting your bore from rust.

Slavex it's up to you to form your own impression, all I can say is it has worked extreamly well for me and has done everything advertised. If your ever in the neiborhood or hit Mystics summerland shoot this year Feel free to check the barrel with a bore scope. It's got my vote without hesitation. Here is a link to a magazine article that did a review on the stuff. Better than I can hope to explain.

Microlon and Teflon

This link supports the contention above that Microlon contains teflon.

Note the comments about shaking the container to mix up the solution. The solution smells like varsol paint thinner to me..

Although it might not be the best for engines it might work fine in guns. I'm trying some in two rifles, .223 R and .308 W. Couldn't see any rise in hits attributable to Microlon and didn't chrony them so I'm not sure what to think at this early stage.

P.S. Maybe Microlon and Rem Oil are related afterall!
 
Whoops

I looked at the link posted by HKMark23 after I posted the link above and it seems the info is identical.

Re the comments in the articles about pricing being all over the map I paid $20. for the small bottle of Microlon in Canada that sells for US $8.95 on the Microlon website in the USA. Kind of steep I'd say.

I personaly don't know what the recipe is for the juice, could contain teflon, maybe even pregnant cow pee who knows other than the maker and maybe some labs, doesnt realy matter to me what the magic mixture is, whatever it is it works in rifles, and works well.

By all means let us know how it works for you. But in your comparison, do a before and after report on barrel ware, accuracy, consistancy,velosity, life span. I am at @ 1500rnds through my custom built .300wm. A good friend of mine brought up a bore scope and we had a look through it at the barrel and throat. I'm no expert, but he is and it looks like a new barrel still. Shoots as good as the day I got it and I cant see that changing in the near future. I have never used a brush in my bore at the end of a 50rnd shoot I use one wet patch with microlon, and 2-3 dry patches, nothing more and the barrel shines. no residue or copper build up, no change in zero or consistancy of accuracy. I can not do a before and after comparison as I have used this stuff from the get go. I have a Savage model 12bvss in .223 that has a round count of @ 2000-2500rnds and accuracy is no where near where it was when I first got it, and probably ready for a new barrel if I were chasing competitive results with it. I never used Microlon in it.

I am interested to see how it works for the rest of you, I have had many PM's on the stuff and I'm sure many have had a chance to try it by now. I have given about all the info I can on the stuff so maybe others who have had the chance to give it an honest run can post thier experiance with it. For me I truely believe it works and works well and can't see myself changing up on it. I am using it in my wife's custom .300 WM with great results so far, and My .50BMG which I havent had alot of practice with as of yet but am sure it will work fine. I will let you all know if I have any negative experiance with the juice, But can't see it happening. The people that put me on to the stuff are people that have thier Sh*t together in the gun world and I have not heard a negative result as of yet from anyone that has used it.

But there is always a first;)
 
The maker is quite secretive of what the actual ingredients are, I guess Coke and Pepsi are as well for that matter. I have used the Microlon products in firearms, vehicles and machinery for several years , all to positive results.
It is interesting to note that all Boeing products stipulate that their supplied engines and such must have Microlon product in the oil or grease, to be in compliance with their warranty. I would think that for someone like Boeing to stipulate this, a fair amount of research and proofing was entailed.
As for the high cost of the product in Canada, haz mat shipping can double the cost of most things, especially if the volume is small. I only know of 1 dealer for Gun Juice or Microlon products in western Canada and would assume his sales volume of this product to be fairly small.
Look at the cost of good cold blue in the US as to what it sells for here.
I highly endorse the Gun Juice by the way.

Hi everyone...

So lets say I don't have a brand new rifle but want to make the switch from solvent and oil to this new stuff...

Can I still make the change... I'm guessing I'll have to clean it really well before I go the gun juice route....

Thoughts?

In fact the product has been around for several years, but yes you do not want to "coat" over any existing copper or carbon , as it will be there forever (so to speak).
I have used it in several " experienced" rifles to good effect, but complete copper/carbon removal is essential. I have tried the new foaming bore cleaner from Sharp ShootR called "Wipe out" it seems to be very effective at removing all fouling when used with the "acellerator" they also market.
I say effective as I own a borescope and could find no trace of copper or carbon after its use. Then applied the GunJuice and have never had copper fouling since.
