Hornady one shot

[RDSHOOTER]

Just wondering if anyone has ever tried the Hornady one shot case lube as a release agent for bedding a rifle. or if there is a good spray on release agent.

Not a spray but have had good luck with Kiwi Shoe Polish.

One Shot works great. I've watched my gunsmith bed several of my rifles with Devcon using Hornady One Shot. The bedding is smooth as glass and releases easily. I'm sure some other products work as well but none are better or easier.

Have had success with Turtle Wax as well.

I use MR-312 zinc stearate spray which I thought I got from Brownells, but they don't list anything like it now.

Looks interesting. Trouble wiping it off?

I have used the kiwi polish for a few years and it does work good but dries out pretty quick in the can.
Looks like Walmart has the CRC and it's pretty cheap, I may give it a try.
Does The Johnson's paste wax dry out in the can?

What was the question ?


One shot,yes it works fine. Makes for a clean job.

Ive had a can for over 20yrs and its still perfect. Ive tried about everything but one shot and its hard to beat the johnsons. Glad to see the one shot does indeed have at least one use. I know the brownells spray release agent is about the same thing and works very well

I'm working on a can that I know is at least 48 years old. My Mother used it on hardwood floors in her old house. She moved in 1970

@RDSHOOTER
As your asking of, I have used Hornady One Shot (case lube) for release agent several times.
I spray on a coat, let a dry for a few minutes, then do it again for a 2nd coat.
I like it better then anything else, do to simplicity.

Lol, I've had a can of it here for lots of years because I hate it for case lube.

So your guys kiwi does not dry out or the johnson's wax? I've done lots of them with this can of kiwi but it's harder than a rock now.

Thanks everyone for the replays, this one I'm going to do is my own so I'm going to try the hornady one shot.

Big johnsons wax does not dry out. Ive never even hammered the lid down just sat it on top

Take the lid off the tin and place the tin in a pan of hot water on your stove. Once it has softened, let it cool and you'll have a fresh tin of polish/wax.
