Hi John,
You most certainly will lose fps when molying projectiles,..possibly as much as 80 fps which in the greater sceme of things is probably not much.
Anthony Hall shoots a 6 BR and coats his projectiles with which he just shot an Australian record small group at 500 meters in last weekends match at Wagga, so..not a problem for Anthony.

The main reason shooters coat projectiles, though, is so we can shoot an entire match (say 50 rounds) without having to clean the barrel. Moly won't make the bullets fly straighter but you will get more shots between cleans. That said, plenty of shooters use naked bullets and don't clean during a match.

I'd probably run without moly 1st & see how the barrel fouls…..you might not need to moly!

Regards,
Belly
