[QUOTE="whirlwindjml, post: 1590405, member: 19793"] Ive nevere heard that on the rem oil. Also i would have sworn my rem oil has teflon as well. I personally have never noticed any ill effect of teflon in the barrel especially since i use only a very light amound and really only in our nasty weather late fall. Ill have to look into that though... I cant see how 90 grains of powder sand blasting the barrel wouldnt remove it since it removes the throat. (Either way rust pitting is worse) As for the patch only... Ive tried it with all the moden stuff (basket full of stuff[larry potterfield thanks me for my business])and i can pull blue patches for a long long long time that way. I actually alternate many of the ones you mentioned. I fimly believe the custom barrel makers are concerned with people skrewing their barrels up (no bore guid for example) and then blaming the barrel. So they recomed chemical and patch. Also a quality lapped barrel has less copper bond than factory barrel with machine marks. After lots of diffrent approaches i still use a brush then patch. I try to to make it a quick thing. I like to shoot more than clean. Then every winter i do the more thorough clean. My groups are where i want them so it works for me... Happy shootin [/QUOTE]
