What is the main difference between moly and lubalux bullet coatings? .... And what precautions are in order for maintenance with each separate coating?
Examples:
Winchester's AccuBond CT rounds have lubalux on them. Nosler's Partition Gold is coated with moly
Thank-you in advance of your expertise / advice in differentiating between these two coatings!

I have used .338-caliber Lubalox-coated FS bullets for years, and never had any problems with Lubalog build-up on the rifling. I believe that this dry substance does not accumulate on the bore like Molybdenum disulfide does. I stopped using FS bullets when CT decided to use Moly. But I read somewhere the Combined Technology is no longer going to use Moly in their bullets, so maybe i will go back the the FS in the near future. In the .338-caliber, the FS bullets are outstanding for hunting in bear country.
