[QUOTE="bamadawg2009, post: 659300, member: 34807"] This helps alot I use barnes cr-10 on all my rifles as well as hoppes when I want to soak them overnight, but I know the barrel is clean I clean the bore every 15-20 shots or less if Im doing load workups. I do 3 wet patches 3 dry patches then a brush and start over and if its super dirty Ill let it soak for the 15 min like the bottle says. Since you mentioned it I do feel a little rough spot about 1/3 to 1/2 way down the bore from the chamber, Ive thaught about running some TUBBS bullets through it and see if that helps but the barrel has had it this spot since day 1. Im right on line with you about the crown I also thaught about cutting it to 20" and have it crowned. Not seeing the vertical stringing yet so i dont think its the lugs just a bigger circle with my grouping, going from the .75 to over 1" at a hundred Im afraid to even shoot it at 200 or over after my last session with it over 8" group at 300. Thanks for the info Ill give it all a try and if not Im putting a 20" shilen on this one as well. [/QUOTE]
