Obviously .22 is a dirty round, Gun oil + .22 = gunge. What oil / lube products do you use in your semi-auto rimfire's to keep the action slick but keep down the gunge?

Also in the Spikes ST-22 what would you guys recommend?

Hmm... I have some unopened Froglube here, a freebie from Newark. Apparently you can even eat the stuff without harm.

Although just why you'd want to eat anything called 'Froglube'...?

Well come the day youa re holed up for 14 days with the zombies outside it is handy to know you have a tasty snack when everything else has been eaten.
