Two lubes tested

Shooting two rounds of the Kent Summer BP leagues, took the opportunity to try lube recipe [16] on round 5, and lube [25] on round 6.

R5 loading with lube recipe [16] was hard going. Lube fairly stiff and difficult to lube the patches on both sides. Lube just sat on one side and did not soak through. Hard to load each time. Shot an 82.0, just above average:

 
R6 loading was a lot easier with lube recipe [25] - Henry Krank's Competition Lube (thanks for the try Don!). Patches easily wetted and loaded, but grouping poor. Sooty swabs after each shot. Managed an 81.1
