[QUOTE="Broz, post: 250672, member: 7503"] Hello, anal barrel guy here. When do you guys stop cleaning? It seems if I let cleaner soak in the barrel a bit it will always produce a bit of blue / green. I have switched to a nickel coated jag too. I use Bore Tech, Montana Extreme 50bmg, Cr-10 and also have Hoppies copper killer. The first two seem to be the best, and no, I don't use both at the same time. The barrel I am working on now has only had one shot from the smith. I have it pretty clean but I still can get some very light blue if I soak it. At this rate it might take a week to brake it in.:rolleyes: Am I being too anal about it?? Please tell me what you pros and smiths do??? Thanks! Jeff [/QUOTE]
