Buy a Winchester Model 70 instead of a Remington Model 700. If your bolt freezes up do to melt or condensation, you can take apart a Winchester Model 70 bolt in the field while wearing gloves and without tools. The Remington Model 700 requires tools.

Motor oil is designed to draw moisture and hold it until heated to engine operating temperature. Using it on guns is a good way to introduce unnecessary rust/corrosion that could have been easily been prevented by using anything else.

Isopropyl alcohol senpai. Lowers freezing point just like salt. Same stuff that's in lock defrosters. Get the 99% stuff because you won't have to worry about getting water in the wrong place.

You're thinking of ATF, faggot.

Been using motor oil for years. Works better than anything on the market, if only because the heightened viscosity creates a longer lasting coat.

actually, I think it's brake fluid.

Either way, motor oil certainly isn't hygroscopic
