Hey John. What all do you use your Bumbling Bear Grease for? Patch lube, or other things as well? I got it primarily to try out as period correct waterproofing on my moccasins, but it has to have a dozen other good uses, as well.
For gun care, I use it on all metal parts and on the stock. I am not much on using stuff like that as a patch lube, except for hunting. For that, I typically would buy a bag of OxYoke pre-lubed patches. I use those because they were the only ones who made correct size patches for .62 caliber and .72 caliber rifles. I am not sure if they make those anymore. October Country "might" still have some of those in stock, but no bets on that.
For Leather, I use it on boots for waterproofing. It does a pretty good job, apply liberally around the seams and on the tongue. (of the boots, not the thing in your mouth). Apply a lite coat on your shooting bag and buff it well. Leaves a nice, soft finish.
For your own personal well being, it is a pretty good chap stick for lips and exposed areas of skin.
That's about all I have figured out. I like it, I use it, 'nuff said.
John
