stick with the Mercury Premium plus anything synthetic will be a waste of money on the 300X. If it were the 2.5 racing synthetic is advised. I still use the Merc. Hi-Perf gear lube. Too much contoversey over what would be better then the Merc. stuff.

Check out Scream & Fly.com. Pennzoil synthetic is also popular. I run Merc oil at present, buy it at Sams Club by the case. Walmart supposedly has the best $ on Pennzoil. Merc oil in the drive.
Good luck with the new boat

Admit it, your # 1 boat has an eggbeater & a bimini.

Klotz TCW3 full synthetic, and Mercury Hi Perf gear lube. I run this in a pair of 300 promaxs. Maybe over kill but safe for sure.
