[QUOTE="ubettcha13, post: 452558, member: 26406"] I started using Yamaha ring free to remove the carbon last yr. I read that some benchrest guys had been using the mercury carbon cleaner. (this is run in 2strokes to help reduce emissions/carbon build up) I picked the ring free because I have a case on hand for our boat. I dunk a patch run it in the bore let it soak acouple mins run a brush a few times(bronze in the hunting guns and nylon in my varmint/target guns) I shoot mollied bullets and the first dry patch is usually black I run another continue this until the first dry patch is clean I then run a hoppes #9 patch for storage. I will dry patch before leaving for the next shooting session/hunt. Comes back in with one or 2 fowlers for all my guns. During my break in I have used the necco or tubb firelapping kits with only the 2 finest grits. All but one are factory barrels right now and all don't copper much if at all since I started doing this. I have the good guns borescoped every now and again by my dealer/smith and this works very well for me so far. I wish I knew about this when I shot alot because it is quick and the most effective method I have used If I have green/blue showing I use either wipe out or the Outers bore foam. Most of the time the ringfree/brushing removes it so I don't use the foam very much at all. I ruined 2 barrels one with a bore paste and another with a copper solvent. so I have tried alot of different things to prevent that from happening again [/QUOTE]
