Call me bored...... did a little test on whether or not oil would migrate into the primers and render the round useless.
So, I took Factory ammunition from 5 different manufacturers and placed them into trays of different oils... Kroil, FP-10, Corrosion X and Breakfree.

They "soaked" for 6 weeks, after which I took them to the range and fired them in my Sig 226.

No misfires, no squibs...nothing. Guess my paranoia about the minimal amount of oil that gets on my primers is really nothing to worry about.

Interesting test. I think American Handgunner did a similar test recently, though probably not as complete, and found similar results. If I can find the article, I'll post it.
