Nah.

Not a bad idea to be honest.

But not a great one either in my opinion.

The only way I could imagine dry lube being a benefit is in ridiculously cold conditions. But what do I know. I'm no expert.

I'd chose a wet lube for corrosion protection, reduced friction, and reduced wear, every time. Even a bit of grease.

I think if the rest of the rifle is taken care of, you could probably get away with everything to nothing as a lube in the buffer tube and as long as nothing was physically impeding the motion, I speculate that the rifle would keep working just fine.
