[QUOTE="DoneNOut, post: 2791922, member: 113404"] Try this: I shoot Savage barrels, so I know how to remove copper! 🤣 1. Shooters choice foaming bore cleaner. 3 applications on top of one another every 10 mins, then let sit overnight. (The foam stays foamy longer on last application doing this) 2. Dry patch one time the next morning to admire the rainbow 🌈 of fouling colors. 3. Flush patch bore with 91% alcohol. Bore still soaked with alcohol, do 15-20 passes with bronze brush also soaked in alcohol. 4. Flush patch bore again with alcohol to remove the gunk the bore brush provided. Dry patch till patches come out dry. (3-4 patches) 5. The above process will rid 95% of the fouling with much less work than you indicated in your post. (Check with Borescope if you have one) Nail the carbon ring with a 30 cal brush, trying to keep the brush from entering into the throat. Micro brushing in out and some spins of the rod. (Iosso, or whatever gun oil) First Round Consistency steps: 6. Degrease the bore with some type of degreaser. K&N oil filter cleaner works great. Soak a patch and short stroke it the length of the bore. Patch dry. Maybe 3 patches before they get too hard to pass through the bore. 7. Embed dry graphite into a patch. Case neck graphite till you buy bulk graphite from Amazon. Short stroke the patch through the bore. 8. Wrap a brush with large patch and remove graphite from chamber. (Leaving graphite in bore) 9. Go shoot [ATTACH type="full"]453902[/ATTACH] [/QUOTE]
