10/22 Lube?


Recommended Posts


I dont have a 10/22 I have a CZ 511 semi, but my mate has one, if he cleans it, it jams for a bit until its got mucky again, my CZ is the same, odd I know, but my advice would be to keep the magazine spotless, and dont lube the rifle internals much, they just dont seem to like it.

Don't put lube near the sliding bolt parts, it'll just catch and trap the powder residue, and that will make matters worse

than they already are.

In a perfect world if you could squirt an airline into the open bolt area every 30 or 40 shots to clear the 'crap' that would

be very helpful (but not possible usually).

As said keep the mag's spotless, I kept my loaded spares in a poly-zip bag in my pocket to avoid 'pocket fluff'.

Got a bolt gun now!!

I use dry molykote (z powder) in a 10/22 clone.

Might I ask where you got it from mate, I could use some myself?

Any decent locksmith will sell it as its used by locksmiths to lube lock barrels

Ahh ok mate I thought they used graphite, you can still get it here under the name dri-slide but it is expensive and like hens teeth.

Good point I think the stuff the lock lads used was a Moly Graphite combination, I have used graphite powder when repairing locks in the past and although it would be perfect as a lube for a fiream it can be VERY messy as the powder gets everywhere. I think I read somewhere the military use graphite powder where operating in the dessert etc??
