This discussion always prompts a lot of responses from folks who have their own pet recipe for bore lube.

I don't know aout teflon by I would fear that it would leave a nasty residue in the chambers and barrel. I would await more definitive info from others who may have tried a teflon based lube.

I like to mix Crisco and wax rings from toilets at about half and half. It gets to a waxxy consistency and if you get the mix right, it stays where you put it even if the temp goes up. Too much Crisco and it can be too runny.

Others in the group will say that the fact the wax rings are no longer made of bees wax is a drawback. I can not argue with that. But I shoot relatively little in comparison with nearly everyone else on the forum. I also clean my pistols in a way that most everyone else thinks is way over the top. So I can get away with using some stuff in the pistol that others in the group shy away from.
