I have a new Remington 700 TIR 308. I love it! It is hand lapped and I have put 140 rounds through it, cleaning it after every trip to the range (about 25-35 rounds thru it per trip). I'm just getting back into rifles (been an archer for 30 years) and I have found there are 2,347 different ways to clean the barrel (I never cleaned mine before). Really??????
Seems to me, if my groups are tight and stay that way, do I really need to hit it with a powder cleaning solvent, followed by a copper solvent, then lube it and start the whole process over again? Good grief! What is the norm for barrel cleaning? Someone please help me....
