[QUOTE="Akhunting, post: 1305778, member: 59197"] I always use nylon brushes with my copper solvent. The bronze are for carbon fouling. I know there are a lot of better products than Hoppe's but have an affection for it and it is a decent carbon cleaner. I have been looking at the KG industries cleaners as well as the Bore Tech stuff. I live in the middle of nowhere, but next time in civilization I will see what I can find. I could just order online as well but just haven't got to it. I have come to the conclusion that the Hoppe's is eating the Tipton brushes and leaving the gray "fouling". I have never had this happen before but the Tipton brushes are new to this gun and the alloy must be more reactive with the Hoppe's. It is a new bottle of Hoppe's as well. I looked in the trash and the patches that are a few days old take on a light blue when I know Butch's and Sweet's are showing no copper fouling present. I like the gun and load, just need it to shoot now! I brought out 3 different recipes today and had one make a nice 1.75 tall x.85 wide group at 340 yards, now if I can get that same load to do it next time out that will be perfect! [/QUOTE]
