[QUOTE="7stw, post: 1916167, member: 22854"] As with most barrels, but not all, my recent Bergara Ridge, copper fouled, rather frequent during break in. As expected, but a few passes , and or short soaks in Boretec, and it was gone. I just cleaned it the other day, and that was after about fifty well spaced shots, had very little copper tracing, but good amount of carbon. I agree with JE Custom, using abrasives will definitely shorten barrel life, when used as regular regiment. And if you need to, theres a problem internal of the barrel. And as yz80 ssid, good ole Hoppes still has its place, and the smell is nice too! [/QUOTE]
