What oil is best? and what ratio?

[bwalker]

Can fogging help prevent the process or is it a degradation between the polar ester and moisture that affects the whole product being compromised or just a matter of rust?

I don't know.
When I run a motor on ester oil before I store it I run a tank of 2R through it, usually at a lower ratio. I then fog.

Rugers better for hunting, especially the super blackhawk 44 mag, but my Colt new frontier 45LC loaded with Buffalo bore works up close.

SBH aren't rated for the hots according to Garrett's:

I know the BB says SBH, but the 2 real nice 7.5" SBHs I had didn't like the above mentioned loads at all.

The cylinder would only turn with increased pressure on the hammer after 2-3 rounds being fired.

I've got RedHawks now, and no more drag.

Interesting

Ruger is a stronger design especially a coil spring compared to leaf springs. Also Rugers can handle a lot more pressure. Colts look better especially the case colored frames.

I like the case coloring on mine

Gonna need a report

I posted a few videos in the saw video thread. I only finished up my Motul 800 at 40:1 today. Exhaust looked real good. No spooge. Stroking at top, but cleaned up well in the cut.
I will try the Saber hopefully tomorrow. Still got lots to cut down. I didn't want to mix the fuel/oil, so I chose to just finish up the Motul 800 and start on the Saber next. Lol

I gotta check and make sure I am in the What oil us best thread. I am a little confused. Lol

 

[junkman]

May have to retune between the brands to keep rpm's the same .

 

[RI Chevy]

I will keep a close check on that. Thanks Brian.

Oils r hygroscopic by nature arent they?

Dino oils aren't much. A POE or PAG oil like I sell in the refrigeration market is very hygroscopic as they're sold in metal containers. The mineral or alky based oils always are sold in plastic containers.
Even OPE "synthetics" contain low amounts of esters so they're pretty stable too.

Very good to mention that I do have to tune my stuff when I change oils. I'm not loyal at all to any oil but have noticed they do at times change the way a saw will run

I had a Redhawk and use to shoot 300 grs. I'm considering a Freedom Arms.

I had an 83 Field Grade in .454: it was alright, but between the FA & the BFR, I actually like the BFR better.

I sold them & jumped onto the 44 train.

Just finished my long term test of MC1. Ran 5 ,4 liter bottles out. Guess what it worked !
225 gallons of mix and no failures.

S w does make a fine revolver

Yes they do! Best trigger, smoothness and balance of any. However I'll give them 2nd place for strength and longivity.

Problem with a Freedom Arms is they have no transfer bar so you have to carry them with the firing pin on a empty chamber.

The worst oil I have ever seem from a corrosion stand point is Redline and it's uses POE base stocks.

They do have a generous safety notch though. First "click"

I had a .357 Colt Python Hunter with the scope , it was awesome .

We gotta get another thread going for the Firearms stuff.

As of late the 2R is doing a fine job. I am anxious to try Keith's RA though.
