[QUOTE="AZ82New, post: 2567824, member: 120858"] I 100 percent agree with this. I believe I ruined a Rock Creek barrel with Semichone and Bore Paste. I had become convinced that I had the allusive “carbon ring” based on increased pressure signs from a proven load. I turned to the forums and that’s where I became convinced of this. I think in all likelihood my neck tension was too high and the brass was giving out after a couple firings. So, on the forums, I was instructed to Semichrome the crap out of that barrel. Which I spent over an hour doing. Things got worse, so I used bore paste the same way. I was literally blowing primers on factory nosler ammo. My gunsmith couldn’t figure it out. I should also mention I was getting extreme velocity increase, like a 100 FPS in some cases. Accuracy stated relatively the same. I’ll never really know but this explanation seems the most plausible. I’m extremely vanilla about cleaning now. That bore is sacred ground…..don’t go fiddling with it excessively. [/QUOTE]
