Is Ballistol the oil that comes in the Benelli case when they're new?

G-96 has a synthetic oil out that recently passed military tests. One of the few that did. This is a new addition to their products and is different than their original CLP. It's supposed to be better than FP-10. I heard one of the tests was dust. No doubt in response to Iraq conditions. The first FP-10 that the Canadians tested flunked. Shooters Choice submitted a better product that was better but as many stated, isn't the best for...

I use FP-10 for all my guns.

FP-10

I switched to Slip 2000 about 7yrs ago! I also use there choke & gas piston cleaner, if you type in Slip 2000 and do a google search there site does side by side tests of other gun lubes.

After cleaning your shotgun, what oil do you use to lube your shotgun? I shoot a SBE , a buddy of mine suggested BreakFree. Any suggestions ? Thanks Goosnit

Breakfree CLP.
