Try soaking cotton in nitric acid based solutions, dry it and see how it burns.

I've heard of beeswax and lambs talo. The lard I'm afraid will get all nasty after while
I honestly don't know the chemical reason but when I tried it for a time it coated the insides of the mechanism with a laquer like substance if it is not cleaned fairly quickly. It would not wash out with the normal soap and water and i had to peel it out and I think I used gasoline or something similar to finish cleaning it. It completely jammed the mechanism. It was possibly months from firing to cleaning so partly my fault but lard and beeswax has never done that too me even after 12 months.How does it turn to plastic?

That does not surprise me, vegetable based oils/grease can get gummy over time. (crisco is a vegetable based grease, right?) They will sure do that in power steering units, brake systems, or transmissions when used in a pinch. (it happens)And this is from using it as an over ball lube?
And pump-shotguns. How did that ever get started?? Always thought that was kind of lame.Allowing reduced loads is one thing I don't like about SASS and one I despise in the NSSA.

the year the Century turned ?I don't understand the 1899 "thing", other than to purposely allow a certain type of firearm that whoever makes the rules likes/wanted. Seems like 1873, 1880, or even 1892 would make more sense. (to me)
