[QUOTE="Calvin45, post: 2895767, member: 109862"] Others will have solutions regarding to removal of existing copper. Allow to recommend for future reference the treatment of bullets and bore with hexagonal boron nitride. It really helps in many regards including reduced fouling and easier cleaning, ESPECIALLY with bullets of long bearing surface or pure copper construction vs gilding metal (like Barnes and swift for example). Other coatings exist, like tungsten disulphide, molybdenum disulphide, lubalox, the old Barnes baked on blue xlc, nickel plating… HBN is miles away superior to all of them in all relevant regards. I highly recommend it. It’s too bad IMR enduron powders are discontinued. The combo of HBN impregnated bullets and copper erasing powders made copper fouling a non issue for me even with old school ungrooved Barnes X bullets. [/QUOTE]
