Yep, me too. It's the only product I've used that makes me feel ill.
I like the smell and it works brilliantly but I avoid it now as one whiff makes me want to throw up.

I've not used it. I'm a PH 009 man, myself. Splash it all over 'Enry.

Re: Ballistol question
As has been stated Youngs 303 is like Hoppes, nitro mors and many other products, adulterated over time as obviously we cannot be trusted to use any product that actually works.
However Youngs 303 is still one of the best water miscible multi use oils for firearms applications out there and is superior to Balistol in most applications in my experience.
It is another forgotten treasure of the gun world and its lack of recognition just goes to show how advertising does more than the qualities of the actual product to get it a reputation.

Don't mind it at all. In fact it's a lot better than some of the solvents I've bought. The butches solvent stinks
