 Never heard of it. What is it? And where did you see it?

Popular with woods workers and Forest Service types out west to put on leather boots as  waterproofing and a conditioner.

I have used it on leather boots just like its intended for and it does a fine job but I have never thought of it as a lube. As for me I think I will stick with good ole homemade bear grease ;D

I don't think I would put anything with tree sap or resins in my gun barrel. Bear grease, and venison, or mutton tallow, is what I use, and haven't found anything better. Some of this exotic/oddball patch lube is flat out dangerous in hot dry climates. The flash point of some of this stuff is way too close to a low grade propellant for comfort. Fighting fire with a powder horn around my neck is not my idea of fun. just sayin'.
