[QUOTE="Tatergunner, post: 2243693, member: 111850"] OK - some guys like the idea of lifting barrel gunk off and some guys want to talk about what won't dissolve lead. To each his own. I have a different 'sort of related issue' to add to this or another thread. Admin move this to whatever thread is appropriate, please. Take a look at a neighbors AR10- 308 cal (pics attached). The barrel has been cleaned with standard methods (brush/patch), yet has an odd 'side ways thing' that brushing and patching and cussing won't dislodge. I read on various threads that bore lapping/smothing is bad bad bad, yet I can't get over the fact that this barrel defect is not right. Ideas from anyone welcome. I'm looking for constructive feedback. To me this looks like there is a chip of steel lodged sideways that is from a chatter/stall in the rifling process. Pictures show (I think/suspect) there is also a divot where this piece of non-disolvable whatever came from - and I suspect it needs to be gone. Leave it alone and shoot the H out of it, or hook it out somehow? [/QUOTE]
