[QUOTE="keithcandler, post: 1580445, member: 3728"] Working back and forth is what we call "short stroking", hard to do this with any kind of quality brush, plastic or bronze bristle. I think you maybe referring to letting the brush exit the muzzle, then pulling back through? Possibly Of course, we have to remember that bores and various size cases will foul differently, and the number of rounds fired. I clean every range visit which is usually 35-60 rounds or when a barrel starts throwing shots from copper fouling, such as factory 7 Mags depending on the brand and quality of the barrel. If you take a 7 Rem mag that has been shot 100 times, you are going to stumble using plastic brushes using JB compound. JB on a bronze bristle brush will get the bore clean, and Montana Extreme copper cream is one heck of a non stinking product to use on badly fouled bores. I wish that everyone reading this thread could get a Lyman bore scope, then become your own expert. You can capture pics of your bore over time and watch the barrel degrade from shooting. At 25x, it will show any bore issues, and then you can relate to how these imperfections relate to accuracy issues, if they do. [/QUOTE]
