Lots can be tested on the pistol range, too. I think you'll like how dry these various formulas are going to shoot. Brad's isn't quite as dry in a revolver as SL-68.whatever will be, but looks like a very decent formula.
As a note, the SL-68.0......
2 ounces fresh Ivory soap (soft, damp),
2 ounces 180F micro-crystalline wax from Blendedwaxes,
2 tablespoons 140-wt. mineral-based gear oil, GL-1 spec.,
2 tablespoons generic white petrolatum,
1 tablespoon heavy mineral oil (laxative grade from pharmacy),
1/2 tablespoon (1.5 tsp.) Castor bean oil (also from pharmacy)
.....didn't exhibit cold-barrel flyers, but SL-68.1...
2 ounces fresh Ivory soap (soft, damp),
2 ounces 180F micro-crystalline wax from Blendedwaxes,
3-1/2 tablespoons 140-wt. mineral-based gear oil, GL-1 spec.,
1/2 tablespoon (1.5 tsp.) Castor bean oil
....does, sometimes, in some guns. That was the .1 drawback I've mentioned a few times.
The only reason for the oil in .0 was to temper the dry, brittle wax. Basically I started out by modifying the wax to get what I wanted to work with for a wax by adding enough of the gear oil to make it about like beeswax (slightly pliable and bendable without cracking), then I used that as a SINGLE ingredient in my mind and added Vaseline, white mineral oil, and soap to build the lube.
I really like that SL-68B.2 recipe, very interested to see how greasy/smokey it is with the beewax ingredient
