[QUOTE="roger8, post: 3010697, member: 75891"] I did a 223 rem for a club member that did exactly what your barrel is doing. Massive carbon ring in front of the case neck in the chamber. Soaked for 24 hrs in Short Scrub, clean and soak again for 24 hrs. This eventually removed the carbon ring and a then had to remove the copper. He was cleaning and only removing enough to get some good shots away before it built up and accuracy suffered. The carbon ring had been breaking away and had left several scratches in the barrel. He was advised to run the barrel in again, and after seeing him try to clean it, it was evident why the barrel was so bad. his patches were 1/2 square and he would place 1 drop of solvent on it and push it through the bore. This bloke had just become frugal and tight fisted in his old age. Another club member watched him clean and expressed his opinion" thats not how you clean a F/king barrel" The shock value of this did the trick and that barrel is still shooting very well [/QUOTE]
