[QUOTE="Orange Dust, post: 2492704, member: 92702"] What this does NOT say is for this to work the barrel has to be cleaned down to the bare metal each time. No fouling or copper can be present. This is especially important because you are burnishing (a form of lapping) the barrel with the bullets you are shooting. So don't think wet patch, dry patch and shoot. It has to all come out or the burnishing will be uneven. Could be worse than just shooting the rifle in the first place. [/QUOTE]
