That bronze wool product is available through Home Depot with free shipping. I'm going to give it a try on a stubborn barrel that I bought when I bought a "Bargain" rifle that is slowly putting me in the poor house.

Primer aficionados should seek out German Salazar's primer photography tests on primer ignition. You will have to use wayback machine to find his blog. Google it. Winchester primers are the hottest.

My guess is Alpine, Fort Davis area ranches.

I spent years trying to get a 22-250 to run 55 gr bullets that should have worked. Even in this thread someone said they shot good groups with a 14 twist barrel, I measured it and 14 twist. I dropped down to 52 gr and bingo one hole. I suggest you determine what your twist is manually and drop...

To do a 700 magnum bolt face will cost $75 plus shipping with the anvil needed to do it right. You'd better get 2 rivets since it takes practice. $20 will not get you a rivet or extractor...
