[QUOTE="esshup, post: 2169637, member: 11101"] I chased my tail for a whole day trying to get copper out of a barrel before I thought about the bronze jags that I was using and the bronze brush.... I found out over the years that a black brush will leave black carbon looking trace in the barrel, and the jags that aren't nickel plated will leave a trace of "copper". I also have the complete Tipton set of nickle plated bore jags. I am a fan of a few different cleaning procedures, but Wipe-Out and the accelerator is top on my list. 2nd is Montana Copper Killer with alternating patches of Hoppes Elite Carbon Cleaner, which I don't think they make any more. Last time I was at Brownells I bought a case of Wipe-Out because of the required HazMat shipping. [/QUOTE]
