Bullet Slick

Wonder lubes come and go and some "stick" around. Bullet Slick is a San Diego Company and as such, I've been able to spend some time getting to know the product and the people involved. Bullet Slick was not originally formulated to be a general-purpose lubricant but the manufacturers had a goal in mind - to reduce copper fouling in bores.

Initial testing began in 1992 and soon found they had accomplished the goal. Just as moly-coated bullets have been shown to reduce fouling and increased accuracy in many cases, so has Bullet Slick. However, Bullet Slick does it cleanly, quickly and economically without the spraying, tumbling or mess commonly associated with the moly coating process.

To test it, I took a patch and wet it with Bullet Slick. I then rubbed the exposed bullets of jacketed military 152 gr. .308 ammo. This particular ammo had always shot reasonably well but had fouled badly. I was surprised at the results.

The simple act of wiping the bullets yielded results as advertised. This is one of those products that actually lives up to its claims. After 50 rounds through my Remington 600 rifle, I could detect virtually no residual fouling (after cleaning it out prior to testing with an Outers Foul-Out).

I also found it great on slide rails on auto pistols, sear surfaces in all manner of firearms, squeaky hinges, and on virtually everything I tried. I called the guys at Lubrication Specialists who said, "Sure, it works great for that too!"

I have continued to use Bullet Slick as a general-purpose lubricant and wipe it onto my centerfire cartridges when I go to the range. When the bore is treated with Bullet Slick, firing just leaves a soot-like residue that wipes out easily. The company also says it's a good rust preventative to boot! I also tried it as a re-sizing lube and wonder of wonders, it worked great there too. Now, what else can I try it on . . . ?
