Wax your string from top to bottom and rub the wax in with a piece of leather, it warms the wax and melts it into the strands of string. I find that rail lube only gums up on the rail and has to be scraped off, as long as you wax the string every 30 to 40 shots you'll only need rail lube on your Ten Point rarely.
