I just picked up my new M1A. None of the greases recommended (lubriplate. plastilube, TW25)are available in my area. The only thing I have found is Pro-Gold. Has anyone used this on an M1A or anything else?
+1...working a bit of grease into the roller runway and
working the action several times would be sufficient.
Mil G 46003 Rifle Grease

I shot a 3-gun in minus 3 temps with wheel bearing grease on my Colt AR. Ran flawlessly all day.Grease is grease except in cold weather. Then it's cement.
