[QUOTE="Seabeeken, post: 2241755, member: 68015"] A friend brought me an 03 Springfield a couple months ago. No visible rifling, straight copper streaks on what appeared to be an asphalt rd. I started out with a 30 cal brush, 10 round trips and it was loose. Changed to a 338 brush, 15 strokes and it was loose. went to a 35 cal brush, 15 strokes it loosened a bit but leveled off. My usual carbon removal wasn’t working as well so I put a nylon brush on with a patch wrapped around it and put kg2 on it. it quickly got clean after a couple patches. What was in there was zero rifling, just rust pits everywhere. New barrel on order. He has a 303 so dirty that rifling was. Invisible. Again, kg2 get it clean. It was somewhat pitted but had rifling. Must have shot undersized bullets in it. Give kg2 a try. Cleans out easier than jb ime [/QUOTE]
