[QUOTE="Starlite, post: 2467821, member: 112246"] Some good products and your techniques are yours, but I fail to see how I figure into being tagged. I was simply trying to state bronze brushes will give a “false copper” I use bronze brushes for scrubbing the bore and then rinse with alcohol. I also use bronze jag for all other products too. I use Boretech copper remover and C4 carbon remover, non stainless barre, Boretech copper remove, wipeout and/ or tactical wipeout, boretech moly (For Walther 6mmCR BARREL ONLY) for stainless barrel (just personal preference) I always start with wipeout foam and hang the gun overnight muzzle down I always finish with Hornady spray gun cleaner and lube inside and out and H#9 oil patch through the barrel if it will be sitting longer the a month. my break in is: 1 shot then clean, sighter 2 shots then clean, sighters 3 shots then clean, moderate load seated .010 off for data only 5 shots then clean, moderate load seated.050 off for data only 10 shots then clean, moderate load seated.080 off for data only. (most of the time this is 1 cold bore sighter the 3 three round groups) then every 10-12 rounds during load development. once complete, then only clean action and an oil patch thru barrel following range shooting. I’ll then only do a thorough cleaning when accuracy falls off or after any hunt regardless. (paranoia preference only). If I start another load development it’s always from a clean barrel. pretty solid technique if you ask me. I like wipeout foam. Then the next day I’ll clean it with wipeout tactical as stated above. Love that stuff. [/QUOTE]
