[QUOTE="dmax1800, post: 911348, member: 68255"] Thanks moto. I shot it yesterday, but only 4 times to sight in the scope. I was more concerned about getting my 22-250 sighted in, so I ran out of daylight. It has either been TOO cold or TOO windy to shoot for the last week. First thing I've noticed, is that with the Hart barrel IT DOES NOT COPPER FOUL! I cleaned it last night with Hoppe's no 9 and got a lot of carbon, but very little copper. I then tried some Bore Tech copper remover and got very little copper. I talked to Hart last week and they said that since the barrel was hand lapped and polished, it should not copper foul. In comparison, the Benchmark barrel I used to have on the gun copper fouled badly and quickly. After 20 to 25 shots it took 2 to 3 cycles of 3 wet patches, nylon brush, 3 wet patches with 20 minutes to overnight between cycles to get the copper out. After I get some shots to fire form some brass, do a couple of ladder tests and shoot some 3 shot groups for powder verification, I'll post the results. I don't want to jinx myself, but I'm hoping for at least less than .75", and maybe .5" at 100 yards. [/QUOTE]
