[QUOTE="green 788, post: 703397, member: 3781"] Hoppes number 9 works for most cleanings... on occasion, some Montana Extreme or Wipeout for the copper. Most folks clean their barrels too much... Todd Hodnett thinks so as well... see this video: [ame=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qbMuknl677A]Todd Hodnett- shooting on a clean bore - YouTube[/ame] I had espoused for years that too much barrel cleaning was actually shortening barrel life--rather than lengthening it. It seems that Hodnett agrees, from his comments in the video. These "death by unga-bunga" barrel cleaning rituals likely do a lot more harm than good. Dan [/QUOTE]
