I was just wondering...
When I was just got into muzzleloading, I pretty much used T/C bore butter exclusively, but then I moved onto Crisco, Blue & Gray, and a variation of the aforementioned Gatofeo lube.
My question is, has anyone ever tried to make their lube smell a bit better by adding an additive to it like T/C seems to?
I wonder sometimes if its something that comes out of the kitchen- like extracts, but I don't know how the alcohols in extracts would jive with the oils.
Or, is it one of the candle making scents? Most of that stuff is poisonous if eaten- and I was told by a man working for T/C that Bore Butter was non-toxic, so that is ruled out.
Oh well. So much for making an exact version (including scent) of "bore butter" at home.
