Ballistol for pellets?

Ive tried it before and had no issues.

I have used it and many others. I find the best “for me” is fp-10 absolutely works great. 

I've used it. No problems.

I have also lubed pellets with it and no problems.

Nice looking Britany.

I tried it, worked great! But the lemon pledge kicked major ass for me.

I was wondering if I could use a spray car wax on my pellets? Or is this a too weird idea?

Ballistol works as a lube, less is more as it goes a long way!

I am however looking into Lemon Pledge as soon as I shoot this current tin of pellets out...

I don’t get it with the Lemon pledge...everyone has been talking about it recently. What is the deal? lubes well?

And smells fresh and exciting!

Most if not all instances a crappy barrels bore will yield better results with a good cleaning and bore lapping than trying to use a crutch such as a lubricant.

In velocities UNDER 850-900 using soft pure lead projectiles requires ZERO lubrication has been my findings. hardened leads purpose done by self casters or those pellets made harder ( H&N for instance ) will get away with being shot faster w/o fouling as badly a pure lead ... tho surprising, show greater fouling over pure lead at lower velocity in general.



EDUCATE yourself .... the web has so much misinformation !!!

I also use it after cleaning a tin of pellets. Although I have not seen any great gains on the chrony with lub but I have not tried the Pledge either. 

Im pushing slugs at basically 1000fps. The pledge didnt gain any accuracy whatsoever, but I put 400 slugs through it this past 4 days and atleast 200 pellets and accuracy hasnt changed at all. Before using it I would start getting some wild fliers after about 50 slugs. Switching between pellets and slugs made it 10x worse. With that said this barrel is still “ new” for an airgun. Im going to continue to use it, doesnt hurt anything from what I can tell. Like motorhead said though keep them at the slower speeds and probably no worries. 

I don't have a chronograph, so I have to guess by looking at velocities published for other 392's that are on the net. So I'm guessing my gun is pushing pellets at about ~650 fps.

I'm using pledge also ,smells great and doesn't leave petroleum/chemical residue on your fingers !!!

I guess I will try some Ballistol. If it's good for the inside of the barrel it shouldn't hurt on the pellets or slugs. 

PCP guns can get away with petroleum based lubes as dieseling is not the big issue as it is for spring guns. Overvthevyears I have repaired numerous springers thatvthe owner used thing like 3in1 oil, wd 40 and other petrol based lubes. You should at least try some lube and see if it helps, you will never know unless you try.

I recently started using it. I have a rifle that shoots the crosman 10.5 grn domes stupid accurate but there was enough flakes in the tin to make 3 more pellets. So I started cleaning and then lubing the pellets and no detriment to accuracy in any gun of mine and have the comfort knowing all that crap isn't going down the barrel. So for me, I will keep doing it going forward with all pellets.
