[QUOTE="Chokoloskee Joe, post: 2843240, member: 110441"] I've only found two things that work to remove a carbon ring. CLR will work but it is corrosive and will remove bluing so you need to use a bore guide. It will not harm the bore but keep it away from the exterior of your rifle. If you have a hard carbon ring, this is a fast way to get rid of it. Pass a wet patch through the barrel and let soak for several hours. Repeat if necessary. Once the ring is gone, I use Bore Tech C4 Carbon cleaner as follows: I keep a bore mop of the correct size, bent at 90 degrees so that it is just long enough to extend just past the chamber, in a baggie soaked with Bore Tech. As soon as I finish shooting, I remove the bolt and insert the bore mop. When I get home, I'll run a couple of dry patches through the bore and that pretty much gets all the carbon out. [/QUOTE]
