They had to oil their ammo to get them to run - apparently, they like to run wet. They were using wax-lubed ammo, if you use oil or grease-lubed ammo you can probably skip the manual lube.As far as accuracy goes. I've mounted scopes on my Rugers, they'll shoot <1" at 25 yards with just about any decent ammo (no Wildcat or Thunderbolt tested...YMMV), 1/2 that with ammo they like (SK, AutoMatch and Lapua in my case). I changed the triggers and bolts to Volquartsen, trigger pulls are 1-1/2 - 2 lbs. If you shoot enough ammo Rugers will eventually choke on wax-lubed ammo in cold weather due to build-up in the mags - have to clean them with Hoppes every once-in-a-while. Recommend using nickel mags over the blued, but blued ones are fine. If you shoot a lot of subsonic ammo it pays to get the Volquartsen bolt and use one of their lighter springs. Users have told me that the 41s are a little picky as to what ammo they'll run.</blockquote>
