[QUOTE="KYpatriot, post: 1044861, member: 48028"] This. If the patches are relatively clean, you are done. In some factory rifles it can actually be detrimental to accuracy if they are squeaky clean, i have a 308 that is a .6moa rifle but needs 20 rounds to get settled down after cleaning, so now it gets cleaned after 400 rounds or so, and shoots lights out even then. My theory is that the copper is filling in "rougher" spots in the bore and it actually smooths everything out. If your rifle is shooting, dont worry about it. [/QUOTE]
