I've always used Hoppe's No. 9 Lubricating Oil. But, with my recent purchase of a Smith and Wesson M&P, I've found that Hoppe's No. 9 is just leaving too much oil behind after cleaning. And no, I'm not over-lubricating

I'm simply using one drop of oil on the 7 spots recommended by the manufacturer.

So, I've decided to switch lubricating oils, though I'd still like to stay within the Hoppe's family. I'm currently looking between Hoppe's Elite Gun Oil and Hoppe's Dri-Lube Aerosol.

Any thoughts or comments on either product, or recommendation for any other product?
