Just wondering what type of gun oil everyone is using to protect their rifles while hunting? Is there a Non-scented or low scented variety out there that people use in order to better stay undetected by game?

Bacon grease while bear hunting, olive oil the rest of the year.

Guns aren't fussy about oil. Lots of guys use automatic transmission fluid because it adheres to metal and doesn't gum up at low temperature.

G96 gun spray, it has a bit of a scent to it but it's about as good as it gets.

On the exterior of my rifles I use.. Fluid film .. I never spray directly on the rifle..I spray lightly on to a cloth then apply .. Works good !! And never had any issues ..

The idiots on Alaskan Bush People pour chicken grease on their guns.

I think someone mentioned using "wax" (may have been on a thread in a different forum on this website).
Makes sense to me...IMO....doesn't smell, and doesn't wipe off easily, and it will keep water off.
I've used that Remington DriLube...seems to be some sort of Teflon? spray, which works for me, and doesn't smell.
(atleast not after I leave the room where I sprayed it on!).
G96 is what I see many others also mention.
I use Ballistol, when storing at home in the off season....but it does smell.

Froglube comes in a paste/wax form, but it's scented.

I use G96 on everything, but I like the scent.

Lloyd's Moovit works well, no scent. Birchwood-Casey Barricade is good.

G 96 gun treatment. Works in extreme cold temperatures, is light and doesn't gum up, doesn't attract dirt, excellent rust inhibiter and works great blasting it as a cleaner. I put that shit on everything..

If it's on TV or the internet, it must be real.

I agree Salty, G96 is the stuff to use, "I put that shit on everything"

G96 to clean, royal purple gun oil for lubrication. The difference in smoothness of the action between g96 and royal Purple was pretty impressive!

G96 Is what I use also. It works great even in the salt water environment for coastal duck hunting .

Sounds about right. Make sure to spill a bit of that grease on your boots as well.
