    Grease for pcp bolt / mechanism area.

    I know pcp grease is different to springer grease. Just want a dab for the bolt & the sliding plate above the bolt on a Logun MK2. Lithium grease from a car accessories shop OK ?
    Rabbit Stew, no artificial additives except lead.
    IF THE MUD REACHES YOUR KNEES GET OUT OF THE FIELD QUICK.

    I can recommend the little tube of Napier airgun grease for things like bolts and hammers. It's lasted a long time as most airguns don't need much.

    I only use dry lube, no 'wet' oil or grease goes anywhere near the working parts of a PCP, it just attracts crud & debris.
    Dri-slide is superb if you can find it, or see what other dry lube a local locksmith stocks.

    The loading mechanism on my Logun definately needs grease rather than drilube

    I’ve been using this stuff for some jobs. I’m not sure it’s as good as the stuff I used to buy from RS Components though.

    If I don’t reply to your comments it’s probably because you’re on my Ignore list.
