[QUOTE="Mikecr, post: 1110498, member: 1521"] Teflon is opposite of good fouling. What you should have read is that it takes longer for fouling to stabilize with use of teflon or oil, or both, as these doesn't burn out so quickly/cleanly. I do what you're looking for(prefouling) with tungsten disulphide(WS2). After cleaning to white metal, I wash bores with alcohol, and then dry burnish in WS2 with a bore mop. I put the gun away in this dry prefouled condition. 1st shot will be as good as any to follow, and later cleaning removes the tungsten along with powder fouling just the same. I also coat my bullets with WS2, but this is to prevent copper fouling out with extended shooting. I don't do this to establish bore fouling. [/QUOTE]
