[QUOTE="eshorebwhntr, post: 2672698, member: 17112"] You're doing the right thing. I ran into this year's ago before figuring out the root cause. Having that cleaning solution in the barrel or chamber can cause what you're seeing. I now have an old cleaning rod that I cut off to about 15in total length with an old copper brush on it. After cleaning with solvent I wet patch the bore with denatured alcohol a few times and then remove my bore guide and wrap several patches around the copper brush and clean the chamber with denatured alcohol as well. After giving it a minute to dry out I then finish the bore with colloidal graphite on a dry patch. This has been working well for me and first shots out of the clean barrel are not wild until solvents are burned out. [/QUOTE]
