Oil and lube attract dirt and cheap ammo supplies a lot of it. This responsible for a lot of the jams this class of ammo gets blamed for.

People disagree with me, but I believe an over oiled/lubed gun is just as bad as an uncleaned gun.
I'd be one of those people. :grin: I'm a heavy luber, and have been ever since I had a failure due to lack of lubrication. I've never had a failure since, despite extended sessions with "dirty" ammo...And it was those same extended sessions that caused by earlier failure due to a light lube job. I know of another individual who lubes heavily, and due to the job he held at the time was responsible for the maintenance of training weapons and never had an "over-lubed" failure through several million rounds fired by his students.

It's an interesting theory, but I've yet to see anybody prove that it's real, much less a significant issue.
