[QUOTE="MudRunner2005, post: 993456, member: 12995"] I'm pretty sure the 5R configuration is about the best. It doesn't allow there to be any pinch-points or stress-points on the bullet during it's travel down the bore. Also, a true 5R barrel is a breeze to clean-up! I mean, a few quick swipes and it's back to mirror-finish. You'll notice that even the brushes and jag/patch slides easier down a 5R barrel than most others. My 5R .308 Win barrel is so simple and easy to clean, just a couple swipes with the brush and couple patches and it's good to go. It holds virtually no copper. I've gone over 200 shots before cleaning it, and it didn't even really need it then, it was still shooting bughole groups. [/QUOTE]
