    Air Rifle Cleaning

    What's the best stuff to use for cleaning the metal work on the gun?
    I'm currently using "mr muscle" polish which i'm sure is not doing it any good! :P

    i think the bottle is best, just moisen a lint free cloth and wipe over job done. Also keep a moistened cloth is a resealable freezer bag and it will last much longer, its ideal to take out with you to wipe over your gun in the field before you case it. With sprays you have the issue of the wind etc blowing the Ballistol onto your scope lenses and other places you don't want it.

    Regards

    Ballistol is an acquired smell; I've gotten used to it now.

    Its great stuff. Breakfree also very highly regarded
