[QUOTE="sibertour, post: 736877, member: 60176"] I had my 338 fail to fire on a marco polo hunt in Tajikistan several years ago, It just went click and when I ejected the cartridge the primer had the faintest mark from the firing pin. Ditto when I tried a second shot . We went back to the truck and washed the bolt with diesel fuel and it worked fine. I had used regular gun oil before and the temperature when this happened was -10 F. I use DriSlide[molybdnum disulfide] now . It seems to provide good lubrication at all temperature ranges and has the added advantage of not holding grit. It also works fine in my mini 14 even at -30 F. [/QUOTE]
