Chuck,

This is a little off topic, but I hope you can help on the Tetra Lubricants. I have a Mauser Mod. 96 (the last made by Mauser in 1998) in .300 WM caliber. The factory manual stated that Tetra Lubricants should NOT be used with this rifle; do you have any knowledge of why they would not want this companys lubicants to be used?

I don't currently have any stainless firearms, but when I did, I used RIG grease formulated for stainless steel. I don't remember the name offhand, but it did a nice job. Personally, I feel that most any grease with a high compression ability would work. On my M1A rifle, I use a lithium based grease on the bolt and roller and have never had any problems.
