Oh, would I get tighter groups if I used extra virgin ?
You might get a tighter group but you might also have to pop a cherry or two in the process.Thanks Hawg, that takes all the voo-do out of it, and I have plenty of olive oil.

When shooting silhouette I'd see one or two other guys doing that.Just lightly spritz the patch with Simple Green solution ...
The list of "suitable" patch lubricant is endless. To me, the most important point is that there is not petrochemical products in the mix. Any grade of olive oil, is suitable and can be used to thin down denser waxes. Olive oil has a higher temp rating. If you know a butcher, get some animal Tallow. That is fat from the internal cavity of an animal that has to be renderd down. Keep in mind that any natural fat or oils can get rancid so a little scented oil is added to make it more pleasant to work with. .....I've decided to make some shooting patches, but need to make a suitable lube.
