[QUOTE="Mike 338, post: 1702408, member: 41338"] That's more or less what I do. I'll bang a few and clean, repeat once or twice as the spirit moves me, bang 15 or so and clean, 20 to 30 and clean. Seriously... who follows to the letter, your manufactures recommended maintenance schedule for your "pretty dang expensive" car/truck? Interestingly, I have a Criterion barrel that I'd clean all the copper out of but it would always leave some dark grey. No matter how much I cleaned it, it always came out like that so I quit thinking about it. After a couple hundred rounds, it never did it again. Most problems don't fix themselves but sometimes they do. [/QUOTE]
