I would much prefer to use BP on an outdoor range as I find BP subs inferior to BP in almost every respect.
I really don't know what to say to this, so I'll keep my gob shut. All I'll note is that if you don't use wads, 'washing a range down' is not necessary. IMO nor is lube, lead being self-lubricating in a steel tube.
