Just received mine and put on one of my Panda bolts. The bold was already pretty slick, even dry but the Hobo oil made it feel like it was riding ball bearings! I'm gonna try it next on resizing some cases.
Thanks Bryant,

works for sizing,,and works great on my FnFal..Doing a little PM work today and cleaned the ram on my 1972 rockchucker. Lubed with Hobo Oil and it is really smooth now. Also put some on the cutter shaft of the case trimmer and it works equally well there.
funny, I did the same. lubed press ram ( later than 1972!) and case trimmer. This oil is superb. Goldilocks formula. not too thick, not too thin just right. Bet AR's run with it.Doing a little PM work today and cleaned the ram on my 1972 rockchucker. Lubed with Hobo Oil and it is really smooth now.

glad you like it, and, I agreefunny, I did the same. lubed press ram ( later than 1972!) and case trimmer. This oil is superb. Goldilocks formula. not too thick, not too thin just right. Bet AR's run with it.
I think this fella is onto something.
done the part #2 on the Fal, it's on here somewhere..glad you like it, and, I agree![]()
if you got a big enough freezer lube it up and put it in, that way you will know for sure..mad science..Has anybody tried it in sub zero temps? Afraid to use it on my hunting rifle and have the bolt freeze.
Dusty if you find some ripple, i want a bottle of pagan pink! (boy that stuff was bad!)
I ordered some hobo oil last month, received it promptly and used it to lube the bolt in the 17hmr. Seemed to help smooth the bolt out but have not had a chance to take it to the range yet.
Wife was complaining about the MBR door squealing/squeaking when I would close the door when I get up early when I can't sleep or have something to do. I took the hinge pins out one at a time, wiped the crud off with a paper towel, and applied a bit of hobo oil to each, wiped the pins down again to get any excess off and re-installed the pins back into the hinges (3). NOW, the damn door will not stay in the open position and she is complaining about the possibility of walking into the edge of the door in the dark. I can push the completely door open, hold it for a second or two and release it. Damn door closes to the halfway position everytime.Cannot win.

got my two bottles. my years in technical fields forces me to use a tech industry phrase to describe this stuff.
"Slicker than owl shit"
if someone wants to try this i'll mail them a sample if they agree to post the results, on meHas anybody tried it in sub zero temps? Afraid to use it on my hunting rifle and have the bolt freeze.
