[QUOTE="Schnyd112, post: 1334451, member: 90453"] Does it settle down after you shoot 20 or so, without cleaning? same theory as above, but in some cases the copper will stop peeling off the bullets, fill the rough spots in the barrel, and shoot fairly well after equalized. My .220 swift took 20+ rounds after stripping copper to settle back into .75-1 inch groups at 100. I stopped cleaning it unless things got ugly. Usually between 300-400 rounds i would need to clean, strip copper, and start over. I eventually replaced the barrel and that solved all my problems. [/QUOTE]
