[QUOTE="Blwebster, post: 1205130, member: 82312"] I would do as suggested and get all the copper out. Also however you will need to get all the carbon out of the bore. One thing that happens just in front of the chamber is a ring of carbon forms that must be removed so it is important to focus on that as well. As for myself, I use Patch-out/Wipeout mostly for the first steps until it looks clean. Then (only on rifles that have not been properly cleaned for a long time) for getting rid of the carbon ring I put a thin layer of fine scotchbrite on an old worn bore brush then coat it with a very fine lapping compound like autosol or JB Bore Cleaner and concentrate for 10 to 20 swipes in the first 3 inches past the chamber taking it back out each time, then a half dozen slow even passes through the entire bore followed by a wet patch of wipe-out wait 15 minutes then tight dry patches. repeat until totally clean and dry. Then put a wet patch of hip-out through the bore and let it stay overnight and follow up with a dry patch. If it is not clean by then do the last step again until it is, then go shoot. [/QUOTE]
