[QUOTE="cdschoonie, post: 3676509, member: 43126"] My new Savage 6.5, is perfect for my ‘wants’ in a rifle. The only issue I’d like to improve, is I’d like to make the action smoother. I’ve seen several videos of guys using J-B, they wipe a little all over the bolt, then just work the bolt, anywhere from 300-400 to 1000+ times. Then clean everything up, re-oil, and they work like butter. The issue for me is, the only one I can find in stock is $23+ s/h. If it were just the bolt, I’d just use some Emery Cloth, but the idea on the paste is obviously so it finds all the contact points in and through the bolt travel. I know I just need a very fine, slightly abrasive polish, so I’m wondering if maybe the Lucas Gun Metal Polish or Nu-Shine, I use in my tumbler, or even Brasso might work for this? I also have Mother’s Mag Polish, and Eagle One Wheel Polish on hand, plus all the ones I have are cheap. I know most, if not all of you have done this for one gun part or another. Thoughts? Ideas? Concerns? [/QUOTE]
