[QUOTE="Shumba, post: 606990, member: 12337"] Wipe Out is "all that" I have not found a product that gets a bore "bare" clean without abrasives like JB and ISSO like Wipe Out. I shoot a Mcmillan TAC 50 and if you have ever owned a 50 you know they have a propinsity to foul like a sailors mouth. Being around some of the guys that regularly shoot in the 50 cal shooters assoc matches they recomended Wipe Out and it is rediculous how well it works. Looking at the bore with a borescope after using wipe out is pleasure to see nothing but fire cracking with no copper or carbon. Good stuff. For the most part I have quit using bronze brushes except during break in. I just use Butches Bore shine and patches for normal cleaning and Wipe out when I have time to let the rifle sit for a while. I have always used bronze brushes and after reading the below article (see link) I suprised to find that there are very very few top shooters, barrel makers and even some of the top rifle builders that ever reccomend or let a a bronze brush into their rifle bores. Since I have stopped using brushes I have not noticed any difference in accuracy. I still use them occasionally for the more intense cartridges if a carbon ring develops but very infrequently compard to my old regemin of brushing every 20-30 rounds. I still clean every 20-30 just no brushing. Through a bore scope I cannot tell a difference between level of clean when brushing and not. However, after Wipe Out, short of JB or ISSO, nothing cleans the bore as well in my experience.
