[QUOTE="jmden, post: 350662, member: 1742"] What I'm really wondering is if Fifty thinks a GJ or Kroil 'coating' before first shot out of a clean barrel would do better for reducing copper and increasing consistency over a shot string. I guess now that my barrel is treated with GJ, using Kroil would just add another layer over it. I don't know. Is that what you were referring to phorwath? Wasn't quite sure if you were referring to my post specifically or just posting in general on the topic. I'm pretty happy with what I've seen progressing since starting to use GJ. It's just a rough factory barrel and I'm keeping an eye out to reduce copper fouling, which by the way, appears to me to be much less after using GJ over the last 100+ of 1400+ rounds through it. It may all just be coincidence, but since treating with GJ (and also gaining a better understanding of prone shooting technique and associated muscle memory and a great(edit: meant to say 'greater') understanding of loading techniques thank to this site, so it may be difficult to attribute all ***. results to GJ) I've had what seems to be a steady increase in consitent precision from this rifle. Last 3 out of 4 shots at 628yds when into 1 1/4" right on target after a couple of sighters for wind as I was too lazy at that point to try to estimate and adjust for wind before the first shot. Not the best learning practice in retrospect... [/QUOTE]
