[QUOTE="FearNoWind, post: 1188163, member: 50867"] I "clean", kinda, after every shooting session; match or load development or just trigger time. But I don't [B]CLEAN!!! [/B] My barrels don't copper foul (proper break in) but like all barrels they accumulate some carbon residue. I run solvent soaked patches down the tube one after another until one comes out with just a hint of carbon evidence. Then I do five cycles with the bronze brush, run two more soaked patches through the barrel anf finish with a dry patch. My first round is always a bit off my zero point but I've learned to compensate for that in matches where the first round counts for high point value. From there on it's no problem. I know shooters who, IMO, wear out a barrel cleaning it without ever getting full benefit of its full life possibilities. Such a waste of good barrels. [/QUOTE]
