[QUOTE="BergerBoy, post: 1109185, member: 85712"] Hey Guys, Thanks for your time and I hope you can help me with my question: I have never used any oil products to saturate the inside of my barrels prior to shooting bc I do not want anything to change or make the barring surface uneven. For example, I only just use Bore tech carbon remover when I clean my rifle. Unless I am copper fouling. I try to only remove the carbon so that I have minimum POI shift the next time I shoot my rifle and I have had good luck with this method.... My brother just bought me some slip2000 EWL and I read that they recommend treating the inside of the barrel before shooting.... I just think that if it doesn't burn off within a couple rounds it could hurt accuracy because some copper is needed to line the inside your barrel for accuracy IMO. When I spoke with Todd Hodnet at SHOT he said he just removes the carbon and leaves most of the copper unless fouling bad. I know if it's not broke, don't fix it but I just wanted to know what y'all thought about it and what your experiences were with this. Thank you for your time. [/QUOTE]
