[QUOTE="shepardswatch, post: 499327, member: 30793"] Yea, I did,that may have not been the best thing, I could see that alot of progress had been made and was advised that the coating would not stand up to the pressure. It is a heavy match barrel and at this piont it doesn't seem to have caused any damage when looking at the bore. After that and soakng in the BG intake cleaner, the stuff really is coming out and it appears to be cleaning up nicely. All in all... I may have been very lucky on both accounts,the quality of the barrel and my ignorance. Never thought I'd ever deal with anything like this and I hope never again. I Picked up the gun without a bolt, found a bolt and it turned out to be a shooter, hope it will be again. I thought if the bore checked out ok, I would start with barrel break-in just like a new barrel and try to bring the former load back up as before. I'll let you know how things turn out. Unless you know of something else I should do ???..... Sorry, I was a little irritated and impatient at first, took sometime to calm down (the guys being out of town helped). Thanks for your help....
