[QUOTE="Trickymissfit, post: 1082155, member: 25383"] Personally I hate Dewey rods, but that's just me. I would buy a couple good jags, and run some very tight patches thru it. If they come out black, you may be seeing a carbon fouled barrel. My guess would be copper fouling. That's a lot of velocity for a .264 diameter, and we may be seeing a copper melt down from friction alone. Hart makes a very fine barrel, and think he uses 17ph4. I seriously doubt you've lost the throat already. I'd hunt up somebody with a Hawkeye bore scope. Never ever use a metal brush!! A nylon brush is better, but a good quality jag and a series of patches is far better. You want the stiffest cleaning rod money can buy, and use it with a good bore guide. Before going any further, I'd spend a night cleaning that barrel instead of watching The Big Bang Theory on the tube. gary [/QUOTE]
