[QUOTE="J E Custom, post: 738172, member: 2736"] Very well said !!!!! It is still the choice of every gun owner to breakin or not, And individual experiences with there firearms. I hear - Don,t use bronze brushes and then hear don,t use nylon, use this solvent or that solvent, clean every shot, clean after 15 or 20 shots,or dont clean until the accuracy falls off. Whats a person to believe? I think every person should try different methods and use what works for him. I have already stated what I think is the best, but if a product comes along that shows an improvement, I will try it and evaluate it to my needs and requirements and make the nessary changes in pursuit of a better shooting firearm. You can teach an old dog new tricks. And not to long ago a friend recomended the use of another bore cleaner, (Just what I needed, I already use 3 or 4 depending on the severity of the fouling in some of the weapons I see or own. Some solvents are very aggressive and work well on badly fouled factory barrels but you cant leave them in the bore very long (4 or 5 minutes) I never use these solvents on custom barrels. Next is the solvents that work well but need more time to do there job (15 to 20 minutes before removal is nessary. Them there are mild solvents that can be left in the bore longer. I use these to remove the more aggressive solvents before final cleaning. I am not trusting enough to leave bore solvent in the bore indefinitely so I do not practice this. The solvent that my friend recomended was Bore Tec and it has worked out very well in some cases and will be added to my arsenal of solvents. So like everything else there is no "ONE" best anything, just what gives you confidence that what you are doing is best for you and your needs. Just another opinion. J E CUSTOM [/QUOTE]
