[QUOTE="Calvin45, post: 2896214, member: 109862"] MagnumManiac already answered and I agree with him REGARDING BALLISTICS…I don’t think it’s gonna benefit anything regarding sd, es, cold bore poi changing with subsequent shots, velocity, etc….if you’re running naked bullets. That being said, it should still provide a benefit to the bore of your rifle regarding longevity, once it’s been forcefully embedded into the metal by that first round to go down the pipe, it’s not coming back out. And should in theory make the throat more resistant to erosion from heat, pressure, and friction but I am not qualified to answer that to a certainty. Just what makes sense, hopefully someone more knowledgeable can comment on that possibility. Really what someone needs to do is get four identical rifles (which I understand is technically impossible but try), one naked bullets and bore, one naked bore with coated bullets, one naked bullets in a treated bore, and one treated bullets and bore. Fire like 300 rounds no cleaning through each in one day haha, and inspect the bore with a bore scope and see what if any difference there is in fouling and ease of cleaning. I do not have time or especially money for such testing but it sounds fun and would give some hardball real answers. [/QUOTE]
